    New Salinity Stds

    You are correct, but the sugar issue may be a "whole different issue", but it still demonstrates a point. For you to say that this doesn't matter.... temp doesn't matter on what rate an inorganic solid dissolves into a liquid, is not 100% correct. Yes your salt may be mixing at the right...

    Dingo's 9 month update

    *click-click * Really nice tank and pics. How long is your exposure. It looks like the pumps are running. If you kill them as well, you can expose the shot for 1 - 2 seconds for some deep color. Just another suggestion. Docs the man tho. I need to get some tips from him.

    Business Ethics Fish/coral Issues
