    That's in your 20gal right?  ;D

    Must be Jamaica during hurricane season.

    Seriously, dead spots!!!

    I still wish they had crunched the numbers on the Oceanic Salt mix.

    You got it john. Actually I had been thinking of switching even before I read that post. I was thinking about oceanic before, but I might just check out the crystal sea. I have been using reefcrystals.
