  1. Feb Chemistry ( Stability Update)

    Well, My LFS advised me to try the chemical - Stability; to Cycle the tank with and after a weeks worth these are the readings taken at noon today.
    temp - 80.5
    SG - 1.024
    PH - 8.0
    Ammon - 0.00 ppm
    Nitrite - 0.00 ppm
    Nitrate - 20 ppm.

    I dont have test kits yet for Alkalinity or calcium...

    Am thinking that a 10% water change is in order and to see what the Nitrate comes down to???? or perhaps a 20%??

  2. Live Rock Critter?

    Well, after having the live rock in the tank for about a week, this "critter" was finally large enough to take a photo of. Not sure what he is, but am Happy none the less that he's here. I would think he's some sorta filter feeder?

    Anyways, Slow news day here in New Mexico... lol.
