I'm really sorry to hear that! Wishing the rest of your fish good health.

How irrational. Bummer!

Beautiful gonis Randy!

I have at least 10-15 screenshots from the last few months of Red Sea failures on SW FB groups.

RIP to the first and only acro I’ve ever had encrust and color up. Urchin knocked it into some other sps which stung it to death. I was so happy that I was able to color up a “high end” sps and keep it alive for months with good PE.

I will never own a Red Sea tank. I’m so sorry to hear about your situation and wish you the best of luck fixing it.

I'm not carbon dosing on purpose! AFR just happens to and I'd rather not switch. I have to counteract some of its carbon dosing effects with dosed nitrates to maintain 5-10ppm. So yes technically they do fight each other but the alternative is 0 nitrate.

I’m going to switch to a lower alk salt! I was funds limited to reef crystals for a while. I’m thinking about Aquaforest Reef Salt. I like calc around 450 and mag above 1350 but I’d like to aim for 8 dkh. My lack of action isn’t a dismissal of the great help I’ve gotten on BAR. I use AFR to free...

Params: sG: 1.026 pH: 8.2 Alk: 10 Calc: 420 Mag: 1380 No3: 13.2 Po4: 0.083

Swappable ram/ssds in MacBooks hasn’t been a thing for years, sadly.

It took over 50ML of 45g nitrate per 750ml RODI to raise my nitrate to 12ppm. I’m going to dial in a maintenance dose over the next few days to hold 10ppm. I don’t plan on dosing phosphate as it’s already in an ideal range.

Well that explains a whole lot about my 0, 0 issue! I dose 18-21ML/day of AFR to maintain 10alk 450 calc. I do have detecable phosphates from over feeding. I just need to get my nitrates up. I'll try a crazy dose of sodium nitrate to see if it rises to detectable levels.

Looking great!

I'd love to head there right now and pick one up! I'm terrified that I have a secret aggressor (my geometric perchlet has been seen chasing my former PSW out of hides and my royal gramma took a few swipes in open water) or am lacking sufficient rock work to ethically house a pink streaked...

Thank you for your verbose feedback! I plan to mooch Josh's microscope to hopefully get a correct ID on exactly what I'm dealing with before I take any corrective action. I have kept phos above 0.03 for months and I still struggle with 0 nitrate despite dosing what should be 20ppm every few...

I want to ditch the floss but it gets so dirty every 2-4 days that I don’t want to see the results of nothing. I’ll adjust the pumps to twice per year and I’ve only been doing 1 WC every 3-4 weeks. My floss drops my salinity by slowing water down and dropping my return chamber so it bounces...

Without this app i would fall so far behind on tank upkeep. I’m not yet using it to track parameters or any of the other features.

Alk creeped up to 11 so I adjusted my doser. Still 0 nitrate despite dosing a ton. Phos is 0.055 with 3x daily glass cleanings now required.

I upgraded @nlopedota to a supporting member with my PayPal account. Welcome!

I'm considering upgrading to an IM 75 EXT so I'm looking forward to a review of the tank. Good luck!
