Ok so all the tests came in and Apex is running.

Temp - 80.4
Ph - 8.15
Salinity - 1.026
Orp - 189 (and slowly climbing)
Alk - 8.5
Calcium - 407
Mag - 1320
Nitrate - 0
Phosphate - 0

From the looks of it I need to feed more and I may need to get calcium up a little bit but I dont think its alarmingly low. Im not sure but the Orp could be low due to the remaining algae breaking down. Any other suggestions on changes I might need to make would be greatly appreciated :)

Curious about updates!
