I was feeling overwhelmed by some of the advice I was getting. It gave me a sence of control, and boosted my confidence in my approach (not dosing).

Oh, and sometimes I just really enjoy working through a mathematical problem.

I also enjoy macramé and Scrabble. Life is never dull over here!

(Just kidding . . . I hate Scrabble)

If the specific articles don't tickle your fancy maybe invest in a good book to summarize everything for you. The Reef Aquarium Vol 3: Science, Art and Technology by Delbeek and Sprung isn't as advanced as the Randy articles but it does contain all of the basics and need-to-know information for a regular tank without being too brief. Once you've read a good all inclusive book or two, the articles are great for providing even more detail on specific topics if you so desire it.

Most of us aren't Chemistry Majors either. I'm an apprentice Carpenter with a BComm. But I do enjoy and know how to read and thats all you need.

Thanks I'll check out the book. I'm reading a lot of Randy's work, but I do find that there are pieces of the puzzle that I'm still missing. It just hasn't "clicked" yet.
