Looks awesome, nice work!
No to the hawkfish as the tank is too small as you thought. I think Orchid Dottybacks are supposed to be less agressive than others, but someone else...
Ah, ok then that should work well. Which blenny, out of curiosity?
Sounds like a plan, although I could see an issue with the Chromis getting bullied, but someone else would need to chime in.
As long as none of the inhabitants need a deeper sand bed, I don't see why not.
Very cool, love the mix of clowns and anemone! Thanks for sharing.
See my thoughts in red above :)
Very cool! Congrats on the new add :)
Very cool Cheryl, and also awesome that you applied to volunteer! That would actually be a good test for my wife, to see if she would think they were...
Here is an example: Aquarium Testing Solution: American Marine Inc. 53.0 mS Calibration/Reference Fluid You should use a calibration solution every...
Ok, as mentioned, test the calc, mag, and alk levels in the water change water. IIRC at 1.026 Reef Crystals should be at 455 calc, 1355 mag, and alk...
What is your salinity at? Are you able to test magnesium? What are you using for test kits? What is the external filter, a simple HOB?
Does it read 35 all of the time, or only when running?
I would test the SW in the 55 drum and see where the levels are at. What salinity is the drum water?
Well that makes more sense, but why are calc, alk, and mag so high? Are you dosing? If not, then my guess is your salinity is actually a lot higher...
Yes, and 2 tips! One is straight, and one is at a 90 degree angle. Very easy to use, and the bottle will last forever unless you have a ton. Just go...
Diatoms won't affect fish :)
Ok, then if you remove 1/2 gal of SW and replace with RO/DI, it should lower your salinity by .005. You could do this every day for a week, and get...
With Aiptasia-X, you just fill the syringe with the solution, VERY slowly release the solution as you approach it (apparently they think it is food...
Not sure on the coral, but the easiest way to lower salinity is to do a water change, and replace with either all RO/DI water, or lower salinity SW....
