Kinda funny.... I realized Turtle sent you a full set and I have exactly half a set for you....you’ll still wind up with the same amount of extra! ;Wacky

If I was dosing close to even, that would be true. But, right now #2 is being dosed 2x as much as #1 & #3 just to try and maintain.... We'll see what happens in a couple weeks. I was more concerned with getting #1 but I will use all of these now so I don't have to worry about having to redo the dosing. The new Pro changes dosing completely and goes from 3 part to 2. Not sure how they expect a tank that uses 1/2 as much mag as cal to use a mixed # 2&3.

We lost our Chocolate Lab also. It still hurts but try to concentrate on the good memories in you heart. We have a sign in our home that says "Heaven is where you get to see all the dogs you've ever loved". I'm sorry for the pain you are feeling.

Did a 20 gal water change completely out of my sump ;)

Had to pump 5 gallons up to the tank but it was so much easier than lugging everything upstairs :)

I like pulling water from the tank and filling the sump simulataneously. I really dont know if I would have the nerve to do the basement. A fish room would be necessary, or the tank in the basement.

Haven't tested since last Saturday so decided to today. Here's the numbers

dkH - 7.84
PO4 - .061
Ca - 470
Mg - 1480
pH - 8.2
NO3 - ~50
Salinity - 1.0255

Nothing surprising but do need to fix PO4 and NO3. Lowered dosing on Ca and Mg and raise Alk. We'll see what Sunday looks like.
