Such a PIA sometimes @Alexander1312 - Already seeing PH effects but par for the course.

Ok- between two vacations my sump became a huge algae mess. It actually helped keep PH higher keeping the refugium light going 24/7 while I got the alk/ph issues mostly resolved. But now that I am home-need to deal with this ugly mess. I probably will scrape as much as possible but in...

Yea-I use to have a Hanna. Thought it overcomplicated!

Anyone has suggestion for a CA testing kit as I believe the refurbished trident I received is not properly testing CA. I think Alk is ok but will test against sailfert. TIA

Contact Kenny @ high tide-I think he can get IM products

Interesting concept. What other foods you considering?

What are you trying to do with them? It’s the newly hatched shrimp that are of nutritional benefit-adults not so much. Reef nutrition has a product called.. rgcomplete -which is phytoplankton & ammonia neutralizer. Might help? I decided not to go that route given the labor involved!

Interesting indeed. Thanks. Yea it was pretty low. Managed a bypass by leaving the light in sump on 24/7 given all the current algae (attempting to regrow microalgae). Might as well as use it for something! Prob not the best idea but better than a PH of 7.4-7.6 vs 7.8-8.0. Will contend with...

How low is low? Unfortunately after the trident was ko’ed next went the doser decided to malfunction (realized this after I attempted calibration and was leaving on vacation). Just had the trident replaced and it came up with alk of 5.5. Fortunately if I simply add increased dosage it is...

I find that it works for sure-just that so many things can obfuscate the effects of a CO2 scrubber..

Sometimes it takes a couple days after you refill water that it kicks in- can never figure it out why..

@newfly -two questions I have 1) -which company/brand CO2 media are you using? Right now I am using icecap -which eh- is ok. But in the past I have used Jorvis-works better and goes further between adding in water every week. Expensive shipping is the issue although after talking with them...

At least they are on it. Hope it resolves soon.

Usually def not in first year like that for sure. Corals doing ok?

How long have the lights been operating ? As in, how long have you had them?

Been meaning to do that and see if my Hanna is also..toast..

I have the Hanna-not sure I trust that either based on discrepancies with my ICP tests that says Hanna is .1 above the ICP on average. But at least I have some consistency.

Ooof. Hope the bugs get worked out. Soon

Update-you liking it so far?
