Everyone at work has asked me if I'm going to get a shark.

Lookin' great Warren

Only thing I'll nitpick about is your Alk and Ca balance

@ 7.2 Alk your Ca should be 412
@ 420 Ca your Alk should be 8.3

Too much messing around to make it wonderful, but it wouldn't hurt if you brought your alk up to 7.5 or even closer to 8.0-8.3
And keep your ca where it is but no higher. Any higher and it might precipitace if your alk drops

Raise your alk and keep your ca where it is, IMHO
Have you tested for mag yet ? or even bought the kits ? :boink:

Just a thought for you to chew on ....

With the way you procrastinated with this build, it doesn't surprise me hehe

P.S. Don't chase numbers.

I'm not suggesting he chase the #s
I'm suggesting he raise his alk

Ya, we get it. We're suggesting he leave it alone, because it's fine :)
