Audited Engineering & Performance Metrics
LIGHT PAR250 - 400 µmol/m²/s (High Intensity)
WATER FLOWStrong Turbulent Random Flow
TARGET DKH8.0 - 8.5 dKH (Rock Steady ±0.2)
CALCIUM DRAW15 - 25 ppm/week in Nano Systems
FRAG DIFFICULTYAdvanced Expert Only
Specialist Advisory: Julian Scott (Marine Biologist & Coral Specialist)
In a 20-gallon nano tank, alkalinity swings greater than 0.5 dKH in 24 hours trigger rapid tissue necrosis (RTN) within 48 hours.
