Fish building/man cave build!

salinity stable. 1.025-.026

the history in the ghl connect app says all 8 including yesterday went off without a hitch.

I will check again tomorrow.

I am also going to send off an ICP test and order some dKh reagent for my hanna checker.

Not too bad.

But it means I really was due for the two water changes I did.
 
This is the recommended course of action to allow the AWC to help th rest of the way.

I can’t do one that big at one whack so I will break it up into three 18 gallon ones for a total of 54 gallons over a few days to avoid shocking the livestock.
 
I want to get it down to .4 so I may do another big change this weekend.

What do you all think for a mixed lps and softie reef?
.04 is as low as I would want to go.

My mixed reef runs between .16 and .36, with no nuisance algaes present.

I have a schedule worked out with my a small amount of GFO, 1 gallon a day AWC and a weekly 18 gallon change to bring it down to .3 or below in three weeks.

After that, I believe the AWC upped to 1.5 gallons a day will keep it in check. I will test weekly to make sure and run GFO if the rock is leaching.
