In any case, anything showing up on these tests is not a good sign since they are not as precise as pro lab machines.

The level to kill ick is .120 usually. What killed many of my corals we at .035 or around that since this is only an estimate.
sorry yeah .10ppm lol I always forget the decimal.

So today all surging zoas are opened. And it looks like few of each frag that I thought were done for have one or two survivors! One monti has some color and seems to be coming back so all is not lost thank jebus.

I'll say, I was sweating bullets the last few days. Still have a huge diatom problem from the WC but I'm just glad some of the corals survived. The hammer and frogspawn still aren't happy, but I expect they will come back sooner or later

Cool thanks dude. This polyfilter is well worth the money too, it polishes the water and takes so much crap out of it

A big thanks to the customer support at Kent Marine today, After sending them an email in regards to my copper levels after adding the carbon, as well as pre and post-carbon pictures and receipts, I am being sent a nice "little" care package (Right Grizz ) so this is an awesome turn of events! I never expected any compensation, except for a refund of the carbon, but I am more then happy with the results!

Although I currently wouldnt recommend the use of their carbon, I would Highly recommend them for their outstanding service!
