Default KH and Anthias

So yesterday I switched from powdered SeaChem Reef Builder to liquid Seachem Carbonate. I got tired of constantly mixing the powder before dosing. Now I just measure into a sump chamber and let my pump mix it up. So much easier.

I have been, and always have, fought with my Kh level. Usually sits around 90. I dosed the liquid yesterday and early this morning. Tested, and now, for the first time in who knows how long, Kh has risen to 120. Good start.

Today I only tested:

Kh - 120
Ca - 460


On another, more sad note... one of my female Maldives Anthias passed on. It was doing very well until the male of the trio settled into the tank. He became an Alpha fish very, very quickly in the tank and started to chase the females. I moved her to my refugium last night as she was still alive... but today... no sign of her. The male is VERY fat and eating well.. and again being Alpha male... eats before all others but tang

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.
