I've also seen a strong correlation between rinsing (or not rinsing) frozen food and cyano outbreaks. I've been lazy over the last few weeks with the rinsing and the cyano is back.

Over the last few weeks I remember seeing that a couple of people had a yellow tang for sale. I forget who you were, so if anybody has one they are looking to sell, let me know.

Ed

SG=1.026

I'm almost certain you're right- alk should be a function of concentration. I made this batch a little weak because I'm filling a new tank that is a little high on SG. I've got another batch brewing,...
