32G biocube to DOSE OR NOT TO DOSE!?

[nightmarepl]

hey guys, currently all my fish are in the QT getting treated for ick so far so good no signs 3 weeks in, was looking at my DT with the corals in there and i just lost an arcan no idea how but slowly it just died out, but others have been looking nice and growing but the growth isnt super fast would you guys recommend dosing ive been tracking my calcium it veries between 400-460ish

was wondering if i should invest into a dose pump and start pumping mag cal and maybe alk into into the tank let me know what you guys think i do pretty much weekly - biweekly water changes

Hello
That’s a very small tank. I think water changes should be enough. I would get salt that match your needs. Dosing that small of a tank will be hard. I would try water changes 1st.
If that doesn’t work I would try kalkwasser in the ato. Another great product is Red Sea “reef foundation ABC+” it’s a all in one you just need to add it directly to the tank.

I'd make sure you're testing for magnesium as well and especially alkalinity. BRS has some great videos on how those 3 elements interact.

Don't dose for anything you're not testing for!

Good luck!
