i might try tossing one whole in...only because i do have a valentini puffer...

also another thought would be to bring a sample to the LFS and see if they will do you a favor and test the alk. Are you going to teh July meeting? maybe we could have someone bring their test kit there...i'm not sure if I can make it or not or I'd offer you my lamotte kit.

I hate those alk tests...the only one i like is my lamotte one...it's expensive as heck but once i dialed it in, i haven't had to test in a while. If you are doing biweekly wc and dosing 2 part - there is no way your ALk should be low. It's very puzzling.

yikes - i'm so bad dexterity wise that i'm sure i'd be at the ER if I tried this....LOL.

how are you able to hold those bees in your hand? i guess they realize you are not a threat?

All of these are just part of your crew and will readily eat fish food. There is no "trace" supplements needed for them.

what inverts do you have?

says to immerse the coral completely for 10 to 12 minutes.

amazing pic falconut - i had heard that linkias sometimes (or always?) prey on asterinas.

Reef tanks with any reading of ammonia is probably what is throwing your hammer/frogspawn out of whack. The fact that you are showing ammonia is a sign something is off. Definitely test that again (to be sure your test kit is right) and make sure that reads zero. Ammonia will lead to nitrite...

unless you are full bore sps reef, i don't think you really need the extra trace elements. You should be able to recover any trace elements via wc for probably most reef tanks out there. In particular elements like iodine cannot be tested properly and overdosing can be lethal. Just be wary...

wish you were closer up here matt! i'd love that lemonade$20/milli$15/stag$10...you travel up this way? if not i will have to yield and wish you best of luck on the sale!!!

ah it's not on the bottle itself, but the plastic sleeve that it is in. You probably threw that out not realizing. It's 30 drops per gallon is what it reads for dipping.

mine reads add 30 drops per gallon. Dip coral into mixture.

It should have the dip instructions on the bottle itself.

also you should have no ammonia detection...something is not right. Did you disturb the sand bed (if you have one)? are all the fish etc accted for? my rule of thumb on dosing - if you can't test it, then you shouldn't be dosing it.

if fit were me i would immediately stop dosing all that stuff except any 2 part or items needed for alk/calc...and maybe mag.. http://www.marinedepot.com/reef-tank-parameters.html

late to the deal again! drats. Although my wife is probably thankful...hahaha. Closed thread.

Flame Hawkfish. Already learned to eat pellets. Very fun to have.
