Everything is looking good in the tank now, except the skimmer is still in overdrive...but I hear that takes a while sometimes. I still have the dinos thought. I can stir up my sand and vac it so it is nice and white and in 10 minutes (not exaggerating) you can see it starting to turn brown. I am considering Hydrogen Peroxide now.

I have dinos too. I was in denial before thinking it was some crazy diatoms that just wouldn't go away, but the moment I seen the slimy bubbles I knew

I'm debating to just remove my sand bed, as that is the only thing it is affecting. My rocks are perfectly 'clean'

Hi,
Which vendor sells the aquaforest lineup?

Im in edmonton if anyone sells it local, I didnt see one on their website though.

Also, how many dosing pump heads will I need? I know I need 3 for the 1,2,3 can I Mix the other stuff like probiotics into one container? Im out of town all week and can not dose 1 drop every other day unless I can dose it.

Until they get a [better] Canadian distributor, you can only find them on Amazon Canada.

I stand corrected. Perhaps their Canadian distributer isn't as useless as was reported. Thanks Derek.

News to me too. They don't list the Aquaforest salt mixes though. I've never ordered from Aquarium Depot, have you guys dealt with them before?

[ramasule]

No salt or components 123 everything else though.

Mindy, do you know how many extra pump heads I would need to dose the probiotics? Can I mix them then dose? The guide didnt say much.

The Reef Salt happens to be at an AMAZING price on Amazon right now. $36.89 + $9.99 shipping... but hurry, only 1 left!

Never dealt with them. But they carry NP Pro 50ml for $35 where amazon does not.

Amazon is probably the best option for everything, but they are possibly an alternative to those products not listed or out of stock on amazon
