Where were those dive pictures from, the ones from your Dad?

Where's your trip to, coming up in March?

Awesomeness!

those pictures were from australia. i really wish i was able to go on that trip but i couldn't afford missing a month of work, let alone i didn't have the time off. The trip we were going to go on is being held off till later. i am saving up for school right now and can't miss time off work and he just started a new job but we are going to be going to honduras. also i might be going to mexico at the end of august so i might do a few dives there.

let me know where you go if/when you head down to Mexico. I've been all around there and dived (dove?) on both sides. I'll let you know the must see spots that not all the tour guides take you to...

So did a few tests and i guess my Mg and Ca are a bit low and my Alk is a bit on the high side. Instant Ocean strikes again. I knew i should have started with Reefers best just from the start.

Mg - 1200
Ca - 340
Alk - 1080

So i am dosing Ca and Mg and i did another water change today. Going to do another set of tests tonight once everything is settled

looking good though!

I still use IO, just add Mg and Ca to the salt mix. Kind of a pain, but apparently my brain forgets the trouble when I actually go in to buy another bucket of salt....
