that's not too bad...

Bad enough!

Once this is right, then I'll test again and see if things seem more reasonable.

Good time to recalibrate the refractormeter to match the hydrometer...

Pfft that thing hurts my eyes anyway lol

It needs to drop, it was at 11 or 12 or something stupid. Which was just as concerning since nothing was being dosed.

Part of what made me realize I needed to verify salinity against another source actually

Also pulled both panels of the lid and hosed them off to remove any salt creep. I should take this opportunity to clean the glass both inside and out since I'm siphoning over the next few days - but my neck is killing me from today's siphoning & all the brooder bin clean out so I think it's break time while I wait for the tank to stabilize after what I just did and I'll check to see where it's sitting in a little bit.

Was aiming to drop to 1.028 but accidentally got closer to 1.0275

Everyone seems fine though. In fact, some corals seem happier, one of my toadstools that has been grumpy lately has polyps out right now.

I think I'll check calcium and alk to see what it did to that later on.

Calcium 560, alkalinity 10
