I screwed up. Messed up dosing calcium and now its 610ppm. I am preparing now for a water change.

Marcus, I have not.

I always thought if Alk was low so was PH. So am concerned about all 3. Will be a few days before PH meter arrives.

Tested Alk -7, calcium- 300ppm. May explain some coral issues. Waiting on PH tester and calcium delivery. Currently making Alk using Randy H recipe.

The vinegar bath did not help. Still jumping around from 10 to 14. Is this one any good? Amazon.com : niceEshop LED Digital PH Meter Tester For Water Tank Aquarium Pool Hot Tub, PH Pen Tests Water Quality Tester, red : Pet Supplies

Looking for small or medium.

Thanks Paul. May have to order the one you mentioned. I cannot find the Mudder anywhere now.

I have a Mudder PH / TDS meter. I went to test the water today and the meter wouldn't stabilize, jumping all over from like 8 to 19. Not sure if it needs new batteries or calibrated. Any ideas? Thanks Mark

Merry Xmas all. ACC gift card here.

Maybe you can find a tank on Craig's list cheap and pop the frame off.

Can I pickup next week?

So a quick google search yielded this. If I place it higher than that hole not sure how well it would skim. Reef Octopus BH-1000

I totally agree with you. I thought the rubber band was so you would remember the height after emptying the collection cup. The screw has to be real tight. I did just notice a hole on the left side of where the cup slides into. The hole goes out to the return section but is blocked if cup is set...

Art, I did follow the directions so when I said dosed once I meant what the instructions stated. The bottle stated use 20 drops per 10.5g first day and repeat 48hrs later and leave it be for 14 days.. This is exactly what I did and the QT is 10g. The fish had no signs of ich when I did QT, other...

No clue what happened. I dosed once like instructions said and let tank be for a few weeks. Did a 3g water change a few weeks ago. last week added the carbon filter to remove copper and yesterday swapped it out. The fish was not looking well or eating much for a few days. Woke up this morning...

My bad Paul. Thats was a different skimmer. I don't see how I can run a tube from the collection cup of the reef octopus.

Would like to try an SPS. Would this be a good one to start with?

The skimmer is a reef octopus 1000. http://www.marinedepot.com/Reef_Octopus_Classic_1000_HOB_Protein_Skimmer_Protein_Skimmers_for_Saltwater_Aquariums_Reefs_Nano_Skimmer-Reef_Octopus-CV20308-FIPSNS-vi.html

Thanks Paul. I assume you have an overflow for your skimmer. Mine doesn't. Just a rectangular box that which is collection cup fits inside the skimmer.
