Wow yes that's a typo never noticed ot said that. My po4 is usually 0.11 to 0.15. I probably ment to put in 0.15.
And thanks tank is doing good I have a waterbox 230 on order right now. I'm excited about the upgrade but also not about moving everything and potentially causing problems. I need to start a new build on here. I moved the tank into the next room and have the whole back and side wall torn out currently torn out where the tank was at. Got some plumbing and electrical done this last weekend need to get some framing, insulation and finish up electrical and dry wall hopefully in the next week or 2 then it will be ready for the new tank to arrive and get that in place and running.

Thank you for clarifying that. Looking forward to your new build.
