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%.

Stacef your 12mm dropper went out today. I expect to get some more of the 9mm bulbs in tommorrow and will be sending you one of those which I like a lot more. If you ever get some frags of that xenia going let me know I might take one but its gonna be at least a month or two before I'll be able to add any more stock.

Re: Anyone need anything made out of pyrex?

Jay!!! Wow! It is awesome, I love it. It got here while I was out of town. But my fiance called me very excited about it!! A month or two gives me ample time to learn how to send Xenia, as I hear it does not ship well, so perfect!! I have lots of GSP's (Green star polyps) also if you would like any. Thanks again!!!!

Re: Anyone need anything made out of pyrex?

glad you like it. I still haven't gotten any more 9mm bulbs yet. I have a bunch of orders I have to finish this week for my normal work before I can get back to fun stuff. Still gotta work on the reef balls.Between the unbearable heat and rain my studio time has been very limited to get everything done. Imagine 90+ heat with florida humidity added with two huge torches pumping out 4000 degrees and two kilns running at over 1000 in a room 16 x 16 and the exhaust system means the A/C doesn't work. Working when the sun's up is just not possible .
Just finished this for panmanmatt's glass seahorses.
