Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
The sodium bicarbonate should be all you need to add to bump up the Alk. What number are you shooting for?
You can also change salt mixes to keep that magic number higher
Remove the aerator on your faucet and screw in your intake line for your RO. Run the waste line down your drain
You can add it directly to your tank and add salt to it. Normally its around 1/2 cup salt per gallon of fresh water
they have buddy units you can look into https://www.marinedepot.com/Aquatic_Life_Twist_In_100_GPD_4_Stage_RO_DI_System_RO_DI_System-AquaticLife-AK01371-FIRORD-vi.html?gclid=CjwKCAjw3cPYBRB7EiwAsrc-uVvDqVgPMJ8MaD0Dtf8X3qV98OCH6R_rHE02vvzHIA2_sjdnKC4T5RoCB94QAvD_BwE
I'm not sure, I don't go there that often but I do know they are pricey.
you should be shooting for "0" TDS using a RO unit. Using Tap+Prime Im not sure as I have never used the stuff. I would Imagine that anything above 1TDS may be pushing it
Some folks have used tap water and Seachem Prime to de-chlorinate and have gotten by with using tap water. I wouldn't but it can be done
SeaLevel Aquarium and Absolutely Fish are probably the closest LFS I can think of to Bloomfield.
Bump need some hands for Friday too
Still could use some more volunteers for this event. Free entry and tee shirts for who participate.
I’ll be there Friday through Sunday
That's number that they asked for each day. If we get more folks to volunteer, then great we will take them. But now I'm just shooting for the minimum.
As you know @SeahorseKeeper , even getting that much last year was a very difficult task for us
