The flu I just had really messed with my stomach. Coffee was off the list from Sunday through Wednesday. Not only did the flu give me insane headaches, I think the fact that I stopped drinking coffee contributed to the feeling like someone was splitting my head in half. Caffeine withdrawal is legit.

Fun fact: did you know coffee is scientifically proven to help you poop. This is my contribution for the day :winking-face-with-tongue: .

Question, I am thinking of buying avast ozone reactor. I saw one at a fellow reefers place, His water was clear... Does anyone use ozone or did and now does not. Anyone have any info either positive or negative on this... I already have a smaller second tunze skimmer from the 140 I can use for the ozone and the bio pellet reactor output I am adding to my dry box...

@Miami Reef has been chasing down clear water and has some good observations. He hasn't made the jump to ozone yet either.

If I had a way to measure in MM, I would send you the measurements for reef Octo classic 110, 150 and 200 INT lol.

I only can measure in Freedom Units.

** oh wait... I know why...
If I base my models on Freedom Units I need to scale them up by 2540% in the slicer to get them the right size... PITA...
