Full DSR quickstart procedure:
(for reef tanks without structural problems)

First walk through the “high nutrients topic”!

• Install power filter (remove as much detritus as possible from sandbed)
• Do basic measurements and corrections with DSR calculator(s).
• Install and calibrate auto dosing units.
• Start the baseline dosing for CarbonVS (use conservative dosing)
• Start the baseline dosing for Fe+. (one week later than carbonVS to prevent bacteria bloom)
• Mix stock solution PH+.
• Start baseline dosing for PH+ (if deficient).
• Mix stock solution for CaSr (Calcium + Strontium).
• Start baseline dosing for CaSr (if deficit).
• Do (adviced) periodic measurements and top up if necessary.
• Use DSR 2.0 calculator to determine consumption and dosing amounts.

When starting DSR on a  system with very high PO4/NO3 make sure to siphon the sandbed use a powerfilter and walk through this checklist to prevent bacteria bloom.
