Re: BigAl's slow chronicle . . .

On a lighter side I've got a Water Change Schedule/pattern that works GREAT!!! I like to mix my water on one day, let it sit/stew for 24 hours and do the water change the next night. It takes approximately 7 hours +/- to fill my holding barrel. So I've been doing it on Tuesday night, Wednesday night and Thursday night. This weekend I started the water Sunday morning.... added Salt mix Sunday night and tonight was able to do water change tonight in the 10g, 6g and 90g in about 30 minutes (this includes scraping the inside of all three tanks with my "Magic Eraser". They all look GREAT!!!

Nitrate (NO3) reduction is directly proportional to percentage of Water Change.
Allen's home-made formula...(-NO3=WC%)
This means if you change 50% of your total water volume (That's EVERYTHING) you'll get a net reduction of (NO3) somewhere around 50%.

Ask me about how to increase your REEF budget without going without FOOD!!
