Nice tank. Hope the storm doesn't hit you too hard.

Frankie · 09-06-2008, 09:19 AM

What storm?

PEMfish · 09-07-2008, 08:30 PM

Oh yeah, it missed you.

I told you I blew it away! Never doubt the power of Frankie

Now that I am here I might as well update. I tested everything and other then the Ca++ it's all on the money. Ca++ was at 355 yesterday (Salifert Strontium kit) and I found out the reason. I needed to up the co2 to the reactor. It's cranking out now so I will test again next week to see if it has gone up. The reason it has dropped is since getting into zeovit my corals have exploded in growth and have a higher demand. I forgot to compensate for the growth and needed to up the dosage. I am just glad it wasn't lower. It should not be so hard to bring up from there and dial it in at 420 again.
Other then that today was water change, skimmer cleaning and glass cleaning day. Took about 20 minutes. NBD.
Thanks for stopping in Paul
