Hey Rev,
Would be nice to have a range of nutrients/parameters. Mine are always moving around.
For instance; alk, I like 8dkh but realistically it's usually 8 to 8.5dkh.
Or NO3, I like 5ppm but the last couple months it's zero.
Even if we able to add a +/- symbol.
You can do 8.2dkh +/- 0.03.
Make sense?

"Drain style" should be a separate category/question, not just an option under "overflow". A text box might be best for this, added under the overflow question.

Also, any question that has "other" as an option should have a text box for details.

How do 'all in one' fall into the drain style? I selected internal.

Also, maybe add a section about quarantine habits

Done.

Some of those items should allow more than one selection. What about folks with multiple tanks?

I think I got all these requests fulfilled!

Can I use my reef showcase as my build thread? I really like how everything is laid out with the parameters and dosing.

This is the goal! We are working on a showcase badge. Until then you should be able to change out that URL in your settings for the URL of your showcase and it work.

@revhtree , is this like another thread for members to comment on ,and need to follow?
or something that can be added above members 1st post on build , and locked so no questions there ?
kinda like a bio , not a new Thread ?
but can still update and edit yourself ?

That would also clear them from unanswered too, just sayin...

I’ll do one when my tank is a little more mature and I have more to show for. Remind us once in a while.

No do it now....PLEASE! This is like a log that you can update as you go!

Going to have to give some thought to the unanswered and how we can work it. It's only going to be a problem like NOW when we have a bunch of people adding to it. After that it will be like any other build thread that would be unanswered.

Also the goal is for this to take the place of build threads but me more focused on the numbers etc. It will be up to each member though if they would rather add to the showcase or just keep the old way. So no worries.

Not really understanding, we will lose our builds ?? NO can't be correct there, what i'm concerned w is
answering 2 threads for every member ?
Straight forward , can I do the "showcase" as a reference of experience,knowledge, keep updated , but on top of first post in current build, have locked , and still edit accordingly ?
TIA...
