Questions - Need some input

I have questions that need answers.

  1. Elos alkalinity testing method? Fritz bi-carbonate the right product? I don't get it.

    Strange mystery with my reef for the past 48-72 hours. It started about three days ago when I observed all the anemones in the Anemone cube shriveling up as if they were spawning. The tank didn't look cloudy though.


    What I'd done prior to this event was replace the CO2 tank to my calcium reactor which had evaporated in less than two weeks due to some leak, more than likely. Since a lack of CO2 existed for at least a day, the pH in the calcium reactor rose from the normal ...

  3. Blue Life Phosphate RX dosing?

    My tank volume minus rocks and sand is 120 gallons, so 6 drops X 12 = 72 drops to drop my phos by .01?
  4. Brine Shrimp hatching?

    Does anybody still hatch there own Brine Shrimp? Melev, I was reading on your site that you once did.

    I was thinking of buying a cheap hatchery and adding them to my tank once in a while.
