There is macro in there, just seeded it with some cheato ;)

Maintenance is quite simple, clean skimmer and filter sock once a week and do approx 12% water change every fortnight.

I was using brightwell neo marine salt but have now changed to Red Sea salt, just the standard stuff. To be honest i have used 5 different salt brands and have noticed no difference in my tank from either, just using red sea now as its the cheapest :).

I use to use the red sea coral pro, but i would always get 0.08 phos reading even with ro/di 0tds. Chnged to bright well and got 0.00. just my 2c

I have read 0.04 in brightwell before, but i dont mind even at 0.08 phosphate as my tank usually hovers around 0.00. Im using the standard Red Sea salt not the Pro as the KH is way too high.

I run a Reef Dynamics Bio pellet reactor. You can just see it in the sump pic, top left hand side behind the skimmer ;)
