Speaking of urchins, its probably unrelated to the pellets but my 5 year old long-spine is in the corner losing its spines. There seems to be less algae on the front glass and the skimmers are starting to produce a little more.

coleus, I believe they were using a pinpoint nitrate monitor to watch. I believe the test kit's were rather inconclusive.

Is anybody monitoring their ORP while using this product? My ozone generator has been offline for some time now and the ORP was hovering around 380 mark +/- 20 mv. I started with the NP pellets and my ORP has steadily dropped to 260 mv. Not sure what it is today but has anybody else noted their ORP levels dropping?
