ESHOPPS Mariner 70 Build

I like him/her. He/she laughs at all my jokes (usually a couple days late). Don't know anything else about them but I do see they write lots of words. I struggled to write five sentences for MOTM so...

Actually, being unable to write long essays is what got me diagnosed as dyslexic.

My tutoring fee on writing long essays is quite reasonable.
 
Checked the mail today and found a Christmas card from Becky! Thanks @Stang67 from the family and I!
 
Stopped at the old Ocean Floor on the way home from Chandler today to grab some Calcium. My wife's birthday is Tuesday so she has a free fish up to $20. I came home with Calcium and a sump Pencil Urchin.
 
More Ammonium dosed yesterday and this morning again. So far I'm dosing 5 mL of Ammonium Chloride twice a day with little to no boost to nitrates BUT I'm holding steady at just under 5 so at least I'm not dropping. Also stirred up some mulm and junk in the sump last night cleaning the plugged up filter floss.

Dosed 15 grams of Calcium as well - according to the math on the jar that's about 25 mg/L. I'ma dose another 15 grams today and see where we're at. Once I get to around 400 I'll check everything on my 4 day averages and figure out my daily dosing needs.

I need to mix up some more Magnesium and get that up higher - still sitting around 1150.
 
I mixed up some Randy's DIY Magnesium today (7 1/4 cup of Chloride and 3/4 cup of Sulfate) and some Calcium Chloride. Gonna start watching for alkalinity usage since it's going to be a lot more using RO. Hopefully get the doser doing daily doses for me on at least calcium and alkalinity. Daily dosing phosphates already and adding 5 mL twice a day of Ammonium Chloride.
 
Ok, time to sell some corals. I'm thinking $100?

I really need to buy a filter (and get rid of the Bubble Algae but it's just in the sump).

Becca ?... :thinking-face: @Reefing_addiction ...:winking-face:
 
I've got 4 Joker's currently in my sump plus 1 in the DT. Gonna see if I can get at least $75 for this one. Post it for $100 to give room to negotiate? It's about 2" oral disc when fully open which is fairly close to full grown for these guys.
 
She doesn't want one. She has the Nexus (Joker+Orange) which is about 4x the cost.
Well at least I didn’t pay that much
