Thanks guys!

Bev, I think that you're right, time for me to get off my @ss I suppose and go back to weekly maintenance!

My nitrates are roughly 5ppm, I have never been able to get them down to 0 but I'm sure my negligence has a lot to do with that. I'm pretty good with water changes, but definitely not great with pumps and those darned foam blocks!

Steve, thanks for the thoughts in regards to my food dispensing. I have been thawing the food in a cup of tank water and dumping it into the tank. I had never heard or thought of doing it any other way, thanks again!

I will also test my RO/DI water to see if that may be a source, but the membranes are relatively new.

I'll let you know how I fare!

Rob
