I apologize for the question….you can kick me the next time you see me…..but you mention you are new to Red Sea test kit. You did subtract the number on the syringe from 1.0? Again, those numbers don’t make sense for IO salt at 1.026.

I question this as well. Those numbers don't jive for IO at 1.026 salinity.

I’m having a he!! Of a week….my neighbor dies, my pool cleaner dies, and now my computer dies. It’s the week of death. (And I won't mention what the stock market did today!) I was looking at my computer while making a recipe and I turn around to find the next ingredient, and it’s crapped...

While I’m at it, I’ll summarize the Magnesium part as well. What you’ll need for this is Mag Flakes (an ice melt product that I think is in a 40 pound bag) and Epsom Salts (that you’ll find at your local Drug Store). This is a ton of Mag Flakes, so if a bunch of you get together you can...

The recipe for Alkalinity, Calcium and Magnesium DIY solutions are referenced in the bottom of the OP…..from Randy Holmes Farley. To quickly summarized the Calc part, simply mix 2 ½ cups of Dow Flakes (an ice melt product that is really hard to find) with one gallon of RO/DI water. An...

Very nice gesture Gluttonous! I'm liking it!

To paraphrase Warner, think of the biopellets as having three arms. One arm takes a carbon, one takes a phosphate and one takes a nitrogen (nitrate). It takes all three for the “reaction” to work. If one is missing, it won’t work. So if there is no nitrates, no more phosphate will be...

Jon Warner had a nice short and sweet talk about biopellets at the swap. I specifically asked this question, and yes you can run GFO along with biopellets….especially in the case of excess phosphate.

Bad news.....I don't think I'll need to upgrade....when I put the guy in the tank, he just floated on his back. I'm now trying to flush him down the toilet, and it's not going well!
