![]() Aww, sorry to hear that Marie. I have to treat for red bugs sometime this week. I hope I don't have any issues, dinoflagellates would be the end of this hobby for me

![]() i totally know where you are coming from. i have had a rough couple months as well, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. run lots of carbon and change every week or 2 weeks, maybe even run chemipure to help absorb the chemical warfare. i have had a case of red bugs and recovered and an amazing war with dinos and just recovered. keep your head up, crap happens but stick with what youre doing and it will get better.

![]() Thanks for the kind words everyone. The hardest part is feeling so powerless, you do everything you can and then you have to just sit and wait it out

![]() Sorry to see you in such termoil. I to am dealing with similar issues. I'm currently running Zeovit and it is far more sensative to ALK spikes. i'm wondering if to a lesser degree your 12 DKH. Might have something to do with it.
I know I racked my brain to find answers, that is the only reason I suggest these things. J |

![]() Dang Marie. I hope things turn around soon for you. The two buckets of salt I had John bring up to PR should come in handy if you need to do more water changes. Let me know if there's anything I can do from down here to help out.
