Finally managed to set up my Apex and Trident yesterday... flushed the lines, performed a calibration, and did my first test.
I was pleasantly surprised by the initial numbers, to be honest. As some of you know, I use a product called Sea Labs No 28 for dose, and over time have learned to through in a spoon of soda ash each time I drop new blocks in. Admittedly, very haphazard...
I rarely do water changes except maybe a small amount once in a blue moon just to refresh... no more than 5 - 10%. I suppose you make call faking Triton...
So my plans are to monitor over time to see how well these cubes really perform... (I have a CaRX but not installed, and hoping the Trident trends will help me decide whether I should pull the trigger or not, along with dosing for alk with a DOS or similar...)
The cubes are supposed to be buffered so as to only dissolve proportional with tank chemistry -- I think the true is somewhere in between marketing spin and regular ol' water dissolution.
