Bored? How about Mentoring a Newbie?

Very good. Let's test mag and alk tomorrow.
At the moment your coral load is low so we cannot expect big alk consumption. The decrease in the alk is happening from the rowaphos and the water change mainly.
If mag stays low we will dose bit mag.
Mag went from 1035 to 1095
Cal went from 375 to 400
Alk went from 11 to 10.9
 
Which do you feel is harder to care for, sps or lps? I've researched that question and discovered much debate. Really my only end goal is to have a beautiful coral tank.
