alright, after work today I had a chance to fiddle with the tank. I have the mp40 about 6-8inches from the top. I have it set to 80% on lagoon mode. 100% was a little too much, LOL. I put the mp10 on the back wall in the middle. I might just sell it because i turned the mp40 off & just had the...
Short story; The only time I've tested a tank was when I first started this hobby a few years ago. It was for nitrate,nitrite, & ammonia.
I have two pH probes for my apex.
I just got salifert mg, alk, and calcium test kits in today.

This is my old schedule: used to run 8am-1030pm
Now I have 2 radions.. and I just cut down the time today from 1130am to 930pm. Been getting tons of cyano. It only hits about 60% max
