It's an interesting thought but I have some doubts vodka will do anything as I'm already dosing TA NO3 Destroyer and I'm sure that stuff has vodka in it (smells like vodka anyhow??). It's a zoanthid tank with no seriously light dependent things in it so I'm just shutting the lights off for a week and see what happens. Sorry here I go hijacking poor Doug's thread again. Just so it's not a complete hijack: I'm not sure what brand of timer I use, but it's just some standard thing from Rona/HD/whatever with an electronic timer and 3-prong plug. I've got some that are 4 years old by now and still working .. Maybe it's Intermatic? I'm not sure offhand. I'll check out what it is and post back because I totally have no hesitations with them. Not bad for $20 or so. Also, I tried the dual-plug Hamilton timer, it generally is OK except 1) the plugs are not independent, it's just a convenience factor that you can plug 2 items into it without a plug extender, and 2) the clock does drift, after a few months I notice it's a good few minutes off the rest of the house. I'd guess around 15 minutes every 6 months or so.
Of course if you REALLY want a Profilux or something, don't let me stop you. :lol: |
For the record my RKE is back up at 100%. It was those damned capsense buttons that screwed everything up. My Kevin couldn't even get near the unit without it freaking out. Digital Aquatics sent me a new head unit with actual push buttons and the problem is completely resolved. I'm really quite pleased with my RKE now, great value for my money and the product is evolving in a direction that really interests me and has a lot of potential to mesh well with all my future plans.
/hijack Before we got the RKE we were using these digital timers we got from Rona in the car plug in timer section. Paid a few dollars more for them, but they've never crapped out, and they've been good to us. Had some of them for well over 4 years now. Let me know if you want a photo of one of them. Salt is one of those things that always makes me cringe. Normally I'm all about trying new things just for the sake of trying them. However salt, is one of those huge no-nos because its not done me well in the past. I'm so hesitant about changing salt, but I'm really curious as to how it might work out for you. |
I just finished switching my tank over from Aquamedic salt to H2Ocean, and bought my first full size bucket of H2Ocean yesterday... Tank seemed to respond well as I am seeing noticeable growth every week. :biggrin: Colors haven't been affected either IMO.

A random splattering of stuff I thought looked ok.
