At first glance, I thought it said,"You are WINNING.".



Tough, but fair!
Good to see you my friend!

Built a macro algae reactor today out of a used reef octopus bio pellet reactor...
Going to try this on the new tank..
See how this goes....

Looks great.

Our kitty Sara is so thin. She hardly eats at all. So I took my largest syringe and put her favorite food in it. All nice and warm. Wrapped her in a towel and fed it to her. More assisted than forced. Which is exactly what her ver was going to do. She got a drink and groomed herself and was purring.

I did this 3 times today. All small amounts. Added some kitten formula also. And ordered some vitamins for cats. The vet can't find anything wrong. I wonder if it was the procedure to look in her ear. That's when she stopped wanting to eat solid foods.

She didn't try to fight my feeding her. She actually seemed to like it. Will continue doing this until something changes.

Night all.

This may sound odd, and maybe it is, but I wonder if it is mental? I wonder if she isn't having a little bit of kitty PTSD. I swear I saw this in my mom's cat growing up. She was spayed by the humane society as a condition of adoption when she was super tiny. It took her forever to trust females, so I fed and bathed her until she got on her feet.

Eventually she overcame it, and lived to the ripe old age of 20.

I don't know exactly why, but I love this picture. Goodnight Smorgasbord! Be well my friends.

Hey Rock, I keep checking n03 to see if it has risen with the Nitrogen increase. So far they are staying at almost zero level, which means I'm either not adding enough or my corals are just consuming the ammonium/urea. Or both I guess. I will probably keep the dose here for a while. Because I don't want to boom, my nitrates, and the corals look outstanding.

If it’s not reading yet, go up in 1ml increments until you get at least 5 Nitrate at a minimum. I mix the urea with ammonium in same bottle.
Your corals do look great which means they are consuming what you put in.
You will notice you may have to increase dosage as things grow out.
I’m doing 60ml AFR, 15ml ammonium/urea and 10ml sodium phosphate for a 130 total water volume system. However, I feed quite heavy.
