Thank you, for the excellent writeup. I'm just getting back into the hobby and find your article VERY useful, handy, and necessary. I still hadn't memorized the values but I now have your article as a cheat sheet. You just saved me hours in searches for these important numbers! THANK YOU!!

lol when is anything in this hobby simple!? But you are right, over complicating the matter is usually what gets us reefers in trouble in the first place. BUt I have to admit, ain;t much simpler things than carbon.

Nice article Melev....Seem to be quite abit of chatter regarding water changes, carbon, GFO lately!!

Nah just forcing people to realize to do them regularly! I think it's the season.. with spring/summer here more people have lives outside of the home. Once winter arrives.. everyone is on their game water quality-wise!

Tagging alone. Great read. I am having problems controlling my brown diatoms on my sand. I too am running a bioreactor, carbon, dosing 7 drops of mb7 & 2mls of coral snow daily, no gfo. I was told to let the biopellets tumble inside the reactor. Could this be the problem? To much flow perhaps?
