    A Macro Cube

    Looks good. I would check PAR to see if you're cooking your LPS. If you become a supporting member, you can borrow one from the club!

    Brightwell Magnesium Question

    Good to know. I haven't had a chance to see what precipitates. I just mixed a few corrective doses that went straight into the tank. I recently switched from 2-part to AFR, hopefully this means less fussing with Mg.

    Brightwell Magnesium Question

    I mixed a more concentrated batch (20g to 16oz of water) and it got pretty warm. It's exothermic, so probably not fake.

    Brightwell Magnesium Question

    I've been going through a lot of premixed Kent Mg. It was getting kinda expensive lol. Hoping this is a cheaper substitute.

    Brightwell Magnesium Question

    Interesting, my packaging says to mix 2.5g in 16fl oz of water. Maybe that's why it doesn't get noticeably warm?

    Brightwell Magnesium Question

    Thanks. Do you know if it is safe to mix a more saturated solution? To raise my Mg by 40ppm, it’s suggesting I mix in 2g of water, which seems like a lot.

    Brightwell Magnesium Question

    I just ordered Magnesion-P from Brightwell. I read the warning "Caution: Contents get very hot when added to water." I mixed 2.5g with 16oz of water (per the instructions) and the solution did not get hot, or even warm! I'm worried this is a fake product (ordered from Amazon). Does anyone have...

    British Virgin Islands Snorkeling Pics

    Post them! I was jealous of my friends with scuba gear. I need to find some time to do the classes and get certified.

    British Virgin Islands Snorkeling Pics

    It was all pretty shallow (less than 20’). Water was ~80F so no wetsuit needed. Everything was shot on a DJI action camera!

    For those interested in buying G2 Red Sea tanks

    I'm planning to retire my G1 250 soon. Luckily no leaks, but the design is insane (front glass has zero support from stand as @Turkeysammich mentioned). There is a tempting Black Friday IM sale right now...
