what do you use to test your salinity?Red sea's salts are relatively cheap, mix very quickly, and have levels I like.
A refractometer or an IO hydrometerwhat do you use to test your salinity?
it seems to me that my refractometer isn't holding a calibration or something. or my calibration fluid isn't good.A refractometer or an IO hydrometer
I like the controllability of AI. A Prime would be fine also I think a Blade would work well for you also. Kessils are good lights, but are basic on/off unless you get the controller. I my fluval, I used a Red Sea 50 led. (Shameless plug... It is for sale) If you go with a prime you can use it in combination with another one or two if you went to a bigger tank.what would be a decent light to get as an upgrade I do know that my Fluval stock light can grow a hammer but I would like something that gives more of an appealing look. I have thought of the Kessel as well.

I've been using AccuraSea1 from two little fishy for a year now, love it. I have a 50 gallon cube box comes with 10 individual bags that each mix just under 5 gallons of salt water. Mixes clear in two hours. So far so good.Hey, y'all I know the debate on which salt to use is a big one!
I am looking for a salt that isn't hard to mix or one that doesn't take 24 hours and that I can store for a few weeks. I have a Fluval Evo 13.5 gallon with the stock light. I just purchased all Salifert tests so I can leave API behind. At some point I wouldn't mind making the change to Hanna but it just isn't in the budget right now. I am trying to change things slowly and so I can get stability before trying to make any purchases of coral. I want softies and a few lps corals like the hammers or frog spawn. I plan to upgrade the light before I get the corals since the stock can manage but it doesn't make them pop like the Kessel or ai prime. Now I said all that to finish my point I have had my tank for over a year now and I have made tones of mistakes that were costly and I want to get everything right. I got an ato for Christmas and I just really want to get on track and have a successful little piece of the reef to enjoy !
