Cade Chaos Grimoire

I bought some dry, wasn't sure how my fish will like it so I didn't want to buy a ton. Once I get around to the big tank I can just use the rest for sand - I don't want to sit on it until then though.

I bought Ocean Nutrition flakes and pellets - Formula 1 and 2 - because it's what my fish already eat. I also bought dry magnesium sulfate and magnesium chloride for supplements.

tiny wrasse

Tank with the SAME 2 CORALS FALLING OVER EVERY DAY

V large natural toned rfa - they seem to like bright light more than the ultra colorful ones... mine always walk up

It just occurred to me I never got any communication past asking for my address from winning the Jan thing :thinking-face:

Anyway, test came back wild - considering I have dosed with nothing but snow phyto pods and rotifers.

Zinc is making it through from the well to the rodi unit. Only zinc.

Calcium and alk too high, but I knew that part already - even though I haven't dosed.

Iodine reading at 153.2 :astonished-face: I don't think I even unpacked that supplement.

Nickel, Vanadium, Zinc all picked up in my tank water at elevated levels as well. Though, the zinc not nearly as high there as in the rodi sample

Pump just "shipped", who knows when it'll arrive. LA sure took their time to ship hard goods as well, probably had to find them.

Still need to order weld-on :rolleyes:

I corrected, my pump got a tracking number - you're right who knows when it'll make it to the post office.

I haven't rushed to order the weld-on yet because I still have no idea where I'm going to be putting this tank

 

[tbrown]

My tank still hasn't shipped. I know where I'm putting it through.

My tracking ETA reads Saturday delivery expected, I think.....

I think there were 5 spots left when I ordered so I'm at the end of the shipping list.

 

[Mhamilton0911]

I don't have a plan for this one either. But I figured I'd try it anyways and eventually I'll find a spot.

Mine's going to be a Betta tank.

Right now one of my Paradise Bettas is in a 1 gallon so she's getting an upgrade.

I thought about betta.... but I haven't committed to anything yet, I also considered pulling my minimaxi rock & Buddha back out of this cube and popping them in there together - they came out of my 4g pico

1st shine correction day. Magnesium which I've been neglecting but knew I needed to do.... Bromine, Boron, Flouride and I guess I'll finally start dailies.

I do need to order mud again, it spilled in storage. That's the only thing I didn't already have.

Looking at trends from my old tank, it's ALWAYS bromine, boron, flouride for me. I wonder if the gorgs and leathers are the reason? Or does everyone's tank suck that up? @Stang67 what are your trends?

Barium and flourine/fluoride. Are the 2 main ones. I missed the fine print on the dosing calculator about the tank being a Barium sponge so i went through almost half a bottle this month to double dose it up. Bromine is/was a bit high bc I was using the Brightwell alk and ca additives. I have since switched over to BRS so hopefully that will get them in check.
Going to send another test out in a week or so to see where I am at now.

Tank, weldon, and pump all scheduled to arrive Saturday.

Sunday I might start working on it? I'm not sure. We have a bird pickup to do and IDK what else yet, looks like it might rain again :rolleyes:

I've got an array of glue dispensing things coming today. Bottles and syringe types with various sized blunt tips. I figured the syringe types would be more control but if I hated it I have bottles as backup.

I did this for my AIO part on my big tank, and I had drips from the bottle applicator before.
