Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
I'm home! Great time. Thanks for checking Walker.

I'll catch up here in a bit. Gotta spend time with the family still.
 
He said he wouldn’t be home until later tonight and we will here from him tonight or tomorrow.
Ohh yeah. I completely forgot about that.
 
Missed the cars in front today ;)

What's up y'all?
Here we go again Joel, my blood pressure, cholesterol, food prices, gas prices, inflation and interest rates. Glad you had a good day!
 
Yes, going to have my mother over and watch my Cleveland Clowns ugh I mean Browns play. The frustration and depression will be balanced out by my Buckeyes win yesterday. How about Vandy? Wow!
I live to close to Alabama to feel safe right now lol.
 
Right now I'm changing 10 g every 15 days, the skimmer is on 24/7 and the fish food 3 times a day, I'm mixing 2 cubes of brine shrimp, 1 cube of fish eggs and 1 cube of marine cuisine ( all this together ) , coral food ( reef roids, benepellets and coral cane) , AB+ and phytoplankton every 3 days.
Stop changing water for a bit.
Muck it up a little.
Run skimmer a tad wet, more water in cup but leave running.
Good for oxygen exchange unless you're already breaking the surface a bit then you can shut it down.
Got a HOB filter or canister filter Luis?

Browns, maybe Indians, sorry guardians getting blood pressure up Kev!
Nice to see you relax a bit my friend.
 
I need to know more about this!!
Hi John hope you had a good day!
Let's just say I/we avoided a wreck today. ;)
I raced cars for years while also cooking in the kitchen.
Secret to racing is don't look right over the wheel, look far ahead.
 
Hello everyone. I hope you've all had a good one. This week is cruisin the coast down here where I live. It's dubbed America's largest block party. There are 11,000 registered classic cars that drive in and spend the week here. They have events in each of the 5 coastal cities and the event lasts a full 7 days. Any car buffs dream! I'll take anyone that comes next October out fishing in the Gulf!

Yes the Tribe spanked Detroit yesterday. My Buckeyes spanked Iowa yesterday and Washington took my Browns behind the tool shed and a physical assault was performed way beyond a spanking. As Meatloaf said, Two out three aint bad. Hey that reminds me, anyone up for another song?

Think the Padres have a chance against the dodgers?

Absolutely but only if Ohtani decides he wants to retire today and quits baseball. Jeez, I don’t think anyone can beat them Joel, I think they have this :crying-face: .
 
Luis, question: is that 0.1 or 0.01? 0.1 is ok. I prefer it a little higher but 0.05+ is what you should be shooting for.
