Just a thought. This weekend will be the last time someone has all 10 of their fingers.
Psa be safe around fire works.
This was a reality for someone I know last year. I wonder if he'll be more responsible this time 'round. We call him "Jimmy no thumbs" now. Don't hillbilly drink and firecracker guys.

Imma have to find a small desktop freezer for upstairs too.
I really want a pair for the office tank. May be time to move the mushrooms out to the big tank. Or restart.the 10g.

Ok, I'm having a brain fart stupid moment... Math is failing my brain.

How do I figure out final concentration if I add a known solution to known solution?

Example:
100 gallons of 8.3 dKh alkalinity
5 gallons of 15.7 dKh alkalinity
Final solution is 105 gallons of 8.6 dKh?

Thanks! I've used that one before but I can't "alter" the product concentrations. I mixed up some water for a water change but the alkalinity is pretty high. I double checked my Hanna against Salifert and they both came out the same. I'm trying to determine if I need to use some Muriatic Acid to drop the alkalinity. I'd like to bring my alk up some anyway but the salt I mixed up is 15.7 dKh so ... Not wanting to kill anything.

(100 x 8.3 / 105) + (5 x 15.7 / 105) = 8.647
