My god dude, this is who I've been arguing with? You've run a 23g BRACKISH FOWLER tank with a single puffer for the past 2 years, with 500 GALLONS worth of purigen in a media reactor. You just added corals a few months ago (GSP, Leathers, and a full tanks worth of SPS frags for some reason), decided to raise your salinity months after, dosed your dKH to 14.5 with kalkwasser and killed almost everything. Not to mention that you're testing with an API Reef Master kit. :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing::rolling-on-the-floor-laughing::rolling-on-the-floor-laughing: You're in no position to be arguing with anyone, let alone posting "my first fish tank" videos in threads where people are discussing actual reef chemistry. You seriously can't make this up. God I love reef2reef.

I don't use any purigen haven't for a long time.

Most of what you say and assume about me is not correct. Watch that video and learn before you diss water changes.

You know what man, good luck to you. You've bested me and you're clealy the better reefer. I hope you figure out why dosing AFR in a low nutrient environment is causing your dKH to swing wildy. If you search hard enough, there is a 10 page thread on that exact subject somewhere on this site. Maybe do a WC, I don't know.

Yeah I don't even dose AFR. But when you insult my puffer you can get lost.

Just Tested:
  • Alkalinity 11.5 dKH

So I recently added a carbon reactor and phosguard reactor. That seems to have done something to strip my water of whatever was helping keep alkalinity stable. Alkalinity is going up and some coral tissue is receding. I've removed the carbon/phosguard reactor and slightly lowered my all-for-reef dosing.
Ummm....dis you? You know we can see your previous posts right?

You're such a joke dude. You think I post everything I do on my tank on here? And the fact that you bring that up to try to force me to concede, yeah right. You insult my fish you better bring bigger guns.

Idk what you hoped to accomplish by posting a pic of my profile. I'm a member of r2r, you got me

Stop running up in other people's threads and screaming about WCs. Go watch your soon to be fowler tank again and calm down.

Ok, let me solve another one for you. No, your aiptasia is not eating your snails.
I'm dealing w/ multiple issues with my tank right now and I'd like to find out if anyone has had snails die in a tank that's been overrun with aiptasia.
