Thanks Cronie SS (@Mhamilton0911 )! I was hoping to get you for some of these sweet towels!
And now I have a backup head unit for testing stuff! I still need to figure out how to hack the RJ45 Jacks.

Apples work for cholesterol too! Lots and lots of apples. Just not too much or you'll have 0 cholesterol which is apparently bad as well?
Yeah I hear you’ll get Dino flatulent if you bottom out. Oh wait….

Hello everyone. I started catching back up tonight a bit. I went and got sick just after my arm got back to normal but at least I have the strength to lift buckets of water again. This is a good thing since I’m way overdue for a water change.

Speaking of water changes, do any of you stick keepers out there use regular IO salt? I can’t afford to pay twice the price of regular IO these days. 6 months ago I could get RC for 40 bucks at PetSmart. Now it’s 90. I can get chewy to ship me a bucket of regular IO for 50 bucks and I think that’s for the 200 gallon box.

I’ve read where people are using it with SPS with success. Still I’d like to know if any of you are using it. I know it’s a bit lower in CAL and ALK but that can easily be fixed. I’m more concerned with the trace elements. I’ll research that some more. For now I probably have enough salt to do a 33% water change which will quite a bit.

Which one? I had problems with levels coming out inconsistent, do you do anything to keep the levels consistent?
Mix up the container before each use.

Morning! I'm already at 'work' printing things for the gremlins. 8yo gremlin wanted a little house to paint. 14 yo wants a wall mount cup holder and 12yo wants a little sloth figure. Putting me to work! I moved the operation to my desk. Now I can do kitchen things.
