^^
yep they have been on my arm for 6 days now. LOVE IT

On another note, mix your salt before you mix it with water. Was doing my waterchange on my BC and everything was good. changed the water this morning and everything was a bit stressed due to the change, and than left for class and I came home to this:



my Alkalinity jumped from 8 to 14 FML. Most the sps RTN'd and the hammer is looking rough. Just did another change, hope it helps.
