Major elements · KH / Ca / Mg
Salinity · temperature compensation
Substrate slope
Uses the same tank L × W. Front-low / rear-high slope is a trapezoidal prism.
Carbonate / CO₂ equilibrium
Engineering estimates for planning only — not a substitute for a structural engineer or a licensed electrician. Glass model: hydrostatic plate bending (Timoshenko coefficients, 3-edge rimless vs 4-edge Eurobrace). Floor check uses GB 50009-style residential live load of 2.0–2.5 kN/m². Hydraulics: Darcy–Weisbach + equivalent-length fittings on GB PVC-U. Major-element doses use anhydrous NaHCO₃, CaCl₂ and MgCl₂·6H₂O. CO₂ from the planted-tank carbonate relation [CO₂] = 3 × dKH × 10^(7−pH).
