Brown algae thick, start of cyno. Got apex & probes set up. Manually tested alk/calcium/salinity...alkalinity was 5.5 ...I was using the wrong water volume amount when testing and adding pt2..calc was 420. I usually run 8-8.5/430. Salinity crept to 1.027 (1.026)..ph is8.3. I’ll set up trident tomorrow

So close, yet so far :(
Yeah, having a hard time getting back the desire. My mom had hip surgery this past week and she is also dealing with dementia. We have been pretty busy taking care of her and her personal business. She is in rehab in the hospital right now. Sitting on my patio at the moment sipping on a brain numbing Zombie cocktail.

Sick as a dog..again. Yesterday was setting up Trident, which didn’t cooperate, so just set up the dos/ddr. Then it was time to start laundry and...washer died after one load. Going to try and catch up before meds kick in again

If it wasn’t for all you guys, I probably would have thrown in the towel. It’s like one step forward and 15 back.
My best to your mom..I know hip surgery is tough. Keep is posted. I need the recipe for your ”brain numbing Zombie”..could’ve used one of those yesterday.
