Sunday numbers
Ca 393 going to dose a slight amount for the 440 to 450 number
Alk 7.7 It's staying steady after making a slight adjustment last week, going to dose some buffer to get it back up to 8.5 ish
Mg 1420 steady
I am saying doser needs to be looked at and also I need to mix so 1+2+3+
Phosphates .05, I did bump up the GFO this week but going to dose Lanthanum for sure tonight.

Burt update, his tank mate are playing nicer and Burt is cruising the tank now. Burt like swimming the the gyre flow most of the time. Sally went missing, but evidently she molted again and is back looking for shrimp.

Sally after a skin peal

I took my parmeter reading Sunday and they were all high, I figured it was human error and going to test today. Mixed another batch of 1+2+3+ Sunday also and went on line.

Ok, today is a big tank maintenance day and tank milestone day.

My conductivity probe when to zero yesterday afternoon and I discovered that all the probes a cake with gunk and now soaking in vinegar solution, and will have to be recalibrated
clean all the pump in the sump (skimmer, return, GFO)
Installing DOS for the awaited auto water change
Installing sensors for low water levels in sump and New salt water temp storge
water change so that I can install sensor in sump
Test tank for parameter today.
Neptune breakout bar will be here Thursday and I will hook up the sensors to the breakout bar and program. This is going to be a really cool feature.
