    Low pH is killing me

    I'm pretty sure this would cause my already $950 electric to top $1000!!!!! As soon as I see a couple days forecast to be 80 or below the windows will be open for sure. It's suppose to get down to the upper 60's low 70's tonight. Maybe I'll open up the windows tonight and see what I get when...

    Low pH is killing me

    Using test kits from 2 different manufactures and getting similar results, I'm pretty confident Ca, Alk, Mg, and NO3 is in check. Plus, I've been calibrating the pH probe frequently lately and am confident in what the AC3 is telling me as well. Is there another parameter that would effect the...

    Low pH is killing me

    I was thinking of this but it's pretty evasive and I was hoping to avoid it. I was kinda concerned that pulling in larger amounts of 85+/humid air would have an adverse affect on many things. And vise verse in the winter. Also, the suggestion of contaminants would be a concern as well. I gotta...

    Low pH is killing me

    Both pumps are hanging outside the window. All fresh air being pumped. The fans are set to come on at 7.98. With the tendency for the pH to be below that, they are pretty much on 18/7. Have a couple mangroves in the sump but probably not enought to make a difference. There are a couple small...

    Low pH is killing me

    Should have added that to my list of tries. Made no noticable difference. All on the high side of acceptable range. Checked with Salifert, double checked with API Thanks

    Low pH is killing me

    To the point I want to bail. Looking at very unhappy, dieing, or dead coral is wearing on me. It's pretty obvious it's due to the air conditioner being on and the house closed up. I know the simple answer is opening the house but then there will be a heat issue to deal with and a hot and...

    Pet plus is a plus in my book!

    I entered the raffle for the tank as well. Must have been a fix because I was suppose to win it! Congratulations and welcome to the club.

    Need help identifying this coral

    I belive it is a frogspawn. It will be easier to tell when it opens.

    Flat Panel TV

    52" Samsung 120 hertz 1080p LCD Got it at Circut City the 120 hertz makes the picture amazingly clear but it also makes the picture herky jerky. If I did it again, I doubt I would use the 120 as the deciding factor.

    How about that!

    yea they're in the nano. they laid them on the back side of a piece of branch. I can just see the top couple of rows. Right now the anemone is laying on them. Don't know if that matters or not. I had a feeling something was going to happen because they were both picking at one spot on the rock...

    No extra hours here. Do they even make them? That's like money. Is there such a thing as "extra money"? Lunch it is.
