Cocks and Beavers... I'd love to see that football game. The announcers would HAVE to have a sense of humor.

My high school alma mater are the Demons. They had a principal after I graduated who was I guess a little extra devout, and a Furman graduate(private Christian university). Out of town guy, didn't grow up here. He wanted to change the mascot to the "Diamonds"... flew over like a sack of bricks. Whole community wanted his head. Torches and pitchforks. He couldn't just change the mascot anyway, but he backed up real quick...
He still managed to pull this carp tho...
Furman University
Lugoff Elgin High School
They've since ditched the diamond logo. This is on the athletics club website. It was different when I wad in school.
Saw this also, I like the pitchfork design. 'The Pitchfork' also happens to be the name of the school newspaper the journalism club does.
The rival high school across the river are the Camden Bulldogs(how original :rolleyes:) and every year before the rival game they have "The Dog Roast" as a pep rally for the team. We used to set a big paper dog on fire but I doubt they do that anymore...

Alk was 9.1 this morning. Right where I want it. I unplugged the Jebao doser tho, as the Coralbox should be here later today and I'll get it set up when I wake up.

Coralbox doser came in. Woke up kinda late today. Good thing for not being tired at work, bad thing for working on the reef. I managed to get this far...
Yep, walked out and left the ATO container on the floor. I'm gonna move it beside the stand so I dont bash it into my dosing container. Got the doser mounted to the stand and plugged in, downloaded the app and couldn't figure out how to read Chinenglish so I gave up and got ready for work. I'll find a Reef Breeders video later and try again in the morning. I'll do a little cable management then as well.

Found my video, and where I was having problems. I didn't go into my phone and connect to the doser, I just connected to my home WIFI and looked for the doser. I'll set it up and get it calibrated in the morning.

Got the Coralbox set up this morning. Once I realized you had to connect to the doser then connect it to your wifi, set up was easy. I have enough technical know how being a stinking millennial and all(technically, I identify with gen x so... xennial?)
Anyway, it's dosing 6ml split into 6, 1ml doses every 4 hours. Tested alk before i left for work and it was 8.2, one day without dosing and I dropped .9dKH. I'll continue to adjust and hopefully we get this thing dialed in now that we have a more accurate doser.

Good luck with all that OT you'll be working this week. FLUIDS! (And not the moonshine kind!)

So, I killed the bottle of key lime rum tonight. PUBG and Pirates with the game clan...
Alk was 8.8 this morning 9.0 this afternoon. I'll let it go and if I see a trend up I'll back off to 5ml per day.

I hate quick turn arounds. 4 night shifts in a row, 24 hours off and back at work at 6am today. My 48 hours of overtime this week, turned into 60. Yay taxes, I mean extra money! It would have been 72 hours of overtime, but I told them I had plans Thursday. They understood and said I was more than pulling my share of covering overtime.
My work schedule for August... when people ask me what I do for fun, I just say work and go home. Yellow are normal shifts, red is overtime, and if they overlap 2 days it's a night shift.
I slept like doodoo last night. Probably didn't help I slept from 0930 to 1700 yesterday. Yes. 9:30am to 5pm... went to bed last night at 2230, and woke up at 2ish, wide awake. I'll sleep good tonight.
Tested alk at 0400. Just before Part 2 doses at 0415. I know I'm testing at all different times of the day, so results may be a bit different. Hanna showed 8.9dKH, so we're getting some kind of stability. 8.8, 9.0 and 8.9 on consecutive days. Good enough for me. I'll switch to weekly testing on Sundays now.

Well... NORMALLY I only work 14 days a month. We're short and there's several people off this week, so there's overtime to cover. I should be off from yesterday morning thru to next Tuesday morning. I would just be sitting at the house anyway, so might as well make stupid money here. Might get new injectors for the truck, or finish my AR15(s) or buy Hydra 26s for the tank... IDK.

The 26HD is 350 new... knock another 50 off and I'd go for it. Pretty sure I could find an unused open box for 300.

Good choice with the Coralbox doser. Ive been super happy with mine on the biocube after havimg that same setup problem as you trying to connect the app to the doser on my wifi.
Cant speak to the GHL but the Apex has been bullet proof for me. Both the Classic and 2016 version. From what little I have seen of the GHL, programming looks to be easier with Apex though Brew12 could say with more certainty.
