Just grab some mag, extra money and a pain in the ass but if you go in knowing it will be a problem you can account for without a hiccup on your reef.

Thanks for the heads up, definitely in mind. :)

The magnesium levels that my trident have been reading have been showing low. It's typically off from hanna, but in a predictable manner. I only usually follow alk, but after reading this and struggling with some sps frags and now a few torches I measured. It's low, I'm at 1080. Following...

agree with everyone here, go see Mark at UC

Thanks! I really miss the display. Once we get my kids frag tank outta the fish room I hope to get that resealed and going again.

Mark always has cools corals! But didn't you just retire all your tanks?

Man be careful with those turbos. I ordered 5 for the frag tank, 1 is bigger than a golf ball, another as big as a medium sized lemon. Those two flip over frag racks daily....

mysaltwaterfishstore.com is a collector in FL that i've used repeatedly over the years.

Ammonia Dosing is how I'm feeding our corals now. Not sure if anyone here has tried this, but it's working good for me. I'm running the frag tank fishless. Just snails, pithos crabs, a few hermits, and peppermints are the only inhabitants aside from corals and algae. I was dosing phosphates...

Worth it though honestly...
