    Dremmel suggestions?

    Do not buy the dremel from Harbor Freight for $30 or $35 its garbage. I bought to cut some coral/rock and picked up the diamond blades; the damn thing burned out. It worked for a few months with minimal use.

    Silicates & Marine Pure

    Last check phosphate was 0 and Nitrate around 20. I just upload the flow on my powerheads a little to see if that helps. I moved them as before was blowing the sand and making a lagoon.

    Reef Crystals v Red Sea Coral Pro?

    I recently heard and read that no matter what salt you use always try to mix it up before adding to water. So basically a bucket should be turned upside down and rolled, bags should be shook up as well. Reason is that contents settle as does everything we purchase that its around.

    Drippers

    Drippers

    I measured before and normally add 5ml calc and 10ml Alk. So I drip at slowest rate and measure again in a few days. Will do that a couple times to ensure nit dosing to much.
