Welcome aboard, Steve.

Tail Spot or Barnacle Blenny.

Great dog(s), good luck with it. I have a black that is now 10+yo.

What are you using to calibrate your refractometer? If plain RO/DI or distilled water, it may be off. I would use a seawater standard solution like this. The Red Sea Pro Mg kit can be a little troublesome to use, especially having to mix each of the 5 drops of the reagent A for 15 seconds...

Looks great, Kevin.

Great meeting, thank you, Mark_C for hosting.

I don't think I would connect the effluent side of a reactor to anything that might either restrict its flow, or even cause a feedback situation.

Welcome aboard, Steve.

Thank you Nikki and Mike for your usual gracious and generous hosting of this month's meeting.

Something like this happened to another LFS on Rt. 70 near Rt. 73, In Living Color was the name IIRC, although it was bleach. I believe it was the owner who sabotaged his own store for the insurance.

BRS here too, 1.1 mL/m for two part, 50 mL/m for kalk.

I would use fully saturated kalk dosed just below your normal evaporation and allow the ATO to make up the difference. I would then adjust your two part to make up the difference in your Ca/Alk needs. I saw an average increase of ~ .2 pH units with the use of kalk this way.

If you want to stay with a standard AC pump, I'd suggest an Eheim 1260, or a Sicce Syncra Silent 3.5. Or, if you're on a budget consider the Danner Mag 7.

+1 to Nerite snails, their eggs look like white sesame seeds.

Try a little kalk paste to get rid of them.
