I added a large Glowstick Sarmentosa frag that I got from a friend today. I also saved the Hawkins Echinata from doom when it fell off the stupid epoxy that never hardened.

I was home for most of the day today, so:
1. My fish got fed a few times.
2. Tested my dKH, and Ca (which I do every 2 or 3 days, if I am home)
3. Added 2 cap fulls of MB7 (which I do same time as #2).
4. Watched my goby doing his job (keeping my sand clean and white).
5. Looked to see if I could spot any hair algae somewhere (didn't).
6. Still plotting how to get rid of my mushroom pests.
6. And bugged Brad here about his carbon dosing.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.

Transferred water from the RO holding tank to the mixing tank for tomorrow nights mix-fest (bi-weekly).
Changed the pre and carbon filters on the RO system (both were due - quarterly and semi-annually).
Added a couple drops of MB7 to the DT.
Topped up the ATO.
Fed the fish dinner.
Made a list of stuff to buy from J&L during the up-coming sale

Had some beer while looking everything over and carried on ...

Drops of MB7?? Going extra slow/cautious, are you?

And yeah, when does that sale happen? I am nearly out of some of my API test kits...

Yup... pretty much the same thing. Growth is far too slow.

Thought about changing the carbon, which is way overdue, but didn't.

Not going slow with the MB7. My drops are per day
I'm past the 'new tank' dosing regime and going with the maintenance dose. 2 drops/day for my 100g system.

J&L sale is August 8-9th
