With all the experienced reefers that will be at the BOD meeting, I was hoping that somebody might be willing to stop by our house and try to figure out my tank. We live about 6 miles from ASAP in Newark. Issues include no growth, calibration of ACII(ph read 7.42 this morning). One of two hammers just melted away this week.

Normal Dr. fees apply.

I was given 7 and 10 that was from a lab, but something seemsto be off. Either the probe, AC2, calibration fluid or tank water. So if you could bring it, we would have another way to test it. I could get it right back to you.

For test kits, I have Elos Alk, Ca, and NO3. I have no way to cross reference the AC2 ph.

I'll bring the pH 7.0 and 10.0 solution as well as a Hanna pH meter to reference against.

I don't know how to copy quotes.
But I think it's calibrated. I don't quite remember how to do it though.

So the black bag is packed and ready. It's so hard, these days, to find doctors who will make house calls :D
Thanks EVERYONE!
