went out and got a buffer and a mag test kit. i tested the mag 2 times using the salifert kit and it cam back at 1470 and 1500. The ph is at about 8.2 which seem like a huge change from yesterday
yes I dose 2 part. I also dose vodka. I need to get a mag test kit. I have a few hard corals and they are doing well. Maybe I will get the 8.3 and see if this helps
ok so I checked all my parameters tonight and this is what i have
amm 0
nitrate 0
nitrite 0
ph 7.6
ca 520
alk 9.9
po4 0

week 3 update. so the first week I was adding 3ml a day and the last 2 weeks I have been adding 6ml per day. The dinoflag's have dissapeared from the glass but still show up a little on the live rock. Also had a small patch of cyno pop up. I pointed the power head on it for awhile and it has...
so me being stupid I left my ro ouside and turned the water off and of course the freezing temp cracked the r/o in 3 places. does anyone have a cheap one for sale. I need asap

My duncan is growing like crazy maybe like 5-6 head. The Dendro no luck it will eat every day and its all by itself so i know its eating but no growth. I think I will move it lower in the tank and see what happens thats what I did with the Duncan and it went crazy after that
What flow and lighting does it prefer. I have 2 400 watt mh's in my 90 and i have it in the middle it opens but not all the way and it really hasnt grown at all even with hand feeding krill. I have had it about 3 months and in the same time my duncan which is on the bottom of the tank has grown...
ok so i made a few changes first i cust the mh's back to about 6 hours a day and the t5's back to about 6 hours as well. I tested my alk im at 9.0 my cal is at 480 both are down as i stopped adding 2 part everyday. But i still am getting the brown stringy stuff after about 2 hours of the light...
If i keep my lights off I have no issues but when i turn on the mh's and t5's within 2 hours i can see brown growth what can I do ? Lights are fairly new thats not the problem.
