Looking good Brian, have to let us know how that PRODIBIO works in the system, im considering using some of it in my system as well. As for the bubble king, you'll like it, awesome skimmers.

Thanx Bob,


The prodibio looks like it's working, It states that you can add fish right away after adding the Startup but...I've been watching my levels and over feeding the system since day one and I still haven't seen the usual spikes...I'm going to test this afternoon again and maybe add a chromis if things still look good >crossing fingers<

The only spike I have seen so far is a salinity spike which didn't make sense to me at first but then I remembered, I added a lot of rock and sand last wkend and forgot about the displacement affecting the ATO (evaporation and no new RODI), I check yesterday and the salt was at 1.029...I removed five gallons which brought it down to 1.027ish, today I'll recheck and maybe remove a little more.

Got a delivery notice from UPS today so I thought I'd skin out of work early and beat the wife home...Took the box inside and started unpacking it and in walks the wife, home early and I'm busted....Not that she really cares but it always feels more exciting when I feel like I'm doing something I'm not supposed to be doing and getting away with it...meh..

Anyway, Here's what showed up...




Ok maybe not,...but almost just as good...




Got some reading and tinkering to do tonight....and I think my wife mumbled something about going "shoe shopping"...
