No, it’s 1.029. That’s where I usually keep it?salinity 1.029 ??
look for reset hole on controller???

Will do, hopefully that solves the issue. Thank you!Take the pump apart and make sure there’s no GHA in the motor or anything that might make it seize up. Just make sure not to loose any small pieces
Oh dang, what happens at 1.030? Mine sometimes drifts that far up if I don’t top off until the end of the week. But I’ve always had it at 1.026-1.029. ;Blackeyetoo high ...flirting with disaster..gal and a half evap your over .030 not good.
jmo...slowly adjust down to ,024 .
over the course of 10 days,roughly half point a day.
No problem ! Glad that fixed itTook the pump apart and cleaned it. Worked like a charm! Thanks @shadow_k.
Mine started out like that. Looks like this nowBecause if you look at these other pictures of Neon Stem Aussie Duncan’s, they look nothing like mine:
(even the ones from POTO!)

Here’s mine just for comparison:
The algae is something to work on, but it’s something most reefers deal with at some point, I feel like people are making you think it’s a bigger deal than it is. Again, it’s something to work on correcting and it can negatively affect some corals, but panicking and tearing your whole tank apart isn’t the answer. I would work on lower nutrients and taking one coral or rock out every few days to scrub clean (in tank water, scrub the rocks/bigger pieces when you do water changes, after scrubbing in old tank water, rinse with new saltwater, I wouldn’t use tap water), you don’t have to do it all at once, and if your nutrients are still high it’s just going to come back. It’s going to be a slow process. You could also try running some fluconazole, I’m having pretty good results with it so far, but that’s up to you, it would maybe be a good idea to try more natural remedies first. Frag rack would be helpful.Thank you. I really hope it does too... sick and tired of it discouraging me,
I will take care of the sand as soon as I get a chance.

I’m think now might be a good time to get a frag rack? Just so I don’t have to individually pluck all of the frags out one by one when I go to clean? Also, so they are off the sand incase algae decided to creep up.
I don't trust anything that' isn't calibrated. Seriously get a calibration fluid made or bought. Just to be sure it's reading correctly.
I like refractometer and calibration fluid. Makes it more personal and builds character for me. I keep my calibration fluid rubber banded to my refractometer so I have to calibrate it before I use it lol. Epsecially during water changes.Would a refractometer or a digital salinity tester be better? (Like the one @F i s h y has?)
