最近,我参观了格伦·冯(Glenn Fong)(Interwebs上的格伦夫(Glennf)),后者在他的家中保留了许多礁石和海洋坦克。格伦(Glenn)是一位成熟的业余爱好者,我在他的客厅里算了近十个水族馆,其中包括他繁殖海马,许多碎片坦克,一个繁殖坦克的系统AiptasiaeatingBerghianudibranches and some tanks which he says are just there because space allows it.
Centerpiece of this small underwater-zoo is his large reef tank containing about 400 gallons. Following his构建线程on one of the Dutch forums, I have seen this tank developing from a nice reef tank into a gorgeous reef with a splendor of variety. After following the more conventional routes of reef keeping, Glenn felt there was still room for improvement.

Based on lots of self study, he felt that he needed to have more control over the essential water parameters. Using conventional test kits and chemical calculations he developed a method he calls荷兰合成礁或仅仅是DSR. Glenn’s large reef is purely ran on this method. While I was skeptical when I first heard about his method, it cannot be denied his tank does very well on it.
Based on the results with his own tanks, Glenn felt he could help other aquarists out with it. Numerous tanks which somehow did not run too well have been drastically improved with the use of Glenn’s method. Originally, the method was just a tool for him to run his own tanks. When he started helping others, he received so many inquiries about availability, he decided he should offer this method to anyone interested as to help others having the same degree of success he has with his own reef.

我们中的许多人已经熟悉使用两个或三个部分方法来控制一些基本参数,例如钙和碳酸盐。格伦(Glenn)采取了更广泛的范围,并提供了对11个参数的控制权。业余爱好者填补了他们在此套件中测量的结果Excel-sealeand the sheet gives feedback on these results and informs how to correct them if necessary.
Glenn states no ionic misbalance will occur when his method is used correctly. The method does not only top up used elements, it also offers control over phosphates and nitrates (many DSR-users notice they even have to dose these!), cyanos and algae. Starting with the method is really easy and so is quitting: apart from the test kits and the salts and solutions, no new equipment has to be bought.
How do you feel about this method?
