Jerk. Yes. You. Ha ha!

I have been looking for one as well, only way I can find one is to order from J&L.

Nice brain as well Patrick.

Test Results
 

Current tank parameters:

SG - 1.025

PH - 7.9 (lights off)

Kh - 80*
Ca - 660*
Mg - 1320

NO3 - 0
NO2 - 0
PO4 - 0


* - Calcium and Kh out of balance. Dosing/Absorption rate not figured out yet.


Does anyone have Ca/Kh product recommendations? I have been using SeaChem's Builder and Calcium Advantage and would definitely be open to trying a better product (if there is one that actually makes a difference).


Thanks.

Maldives Anthias Update
 

Well unfortunately I lost the female Lyretail yesterday. She seemed to be doing fine over all, but the male definitely bullied her.

This I am sure contributed to her demise. The male is still fat and sassy. Running my six line around and eating anything he can.

I hope he continues in this fashion.

My male anthias is a PITA. :lol: Constantly chasing my midas blenny into his hole when comes feeding time. Annoying but funny to watch the blenny bite the anthias when he turns to swim away.

Currents Parameters
 

I tested with 2 separate kits. My regular Hagen and API.

API...

Ca - 540
Kh - 179 - 1st test
Kh - 161 - 3rd test


Hagen...

Ca - 540
Kh - 120 - 2nd test
Kh - 160 - 4th test (1st new bottle)
Kh - 160 - 5th test (2nd new bottle)


Mg - 1440

SG - 1.025


As you can see the first Hagen test was off. The bottle was low and I guess they become unreliable. I had two spare bottles so I tested with both as well as an extra test against the API. As you can see.... fairly consistent.

The first Hagen bottle... garbage.

My tank is finally nice and balanced. Ca is high as is Mg, but its not the end of the world. At least its not low still!


BONSAI!!!!

Todays results

Mg - 1360
Ca - 540
Kh - 150

Not bad.

Probably Symphyllia sp.
