I think im finally in the home streach for my adj. 143 to 145 ppm alk. not much swing. sure that will change with coral additions.

 

[billyocean]

If not, some more adj

It's going to need some regardless but if its close to those then it's getting dialed. I would say another 2 days should be dialed in with a 3rd and rth day for confirmation tests

I've found alk demand may go down for a day or 2 when adding a bunch of sticks then start increasing over the next week or two. The swings are negligible but tests are recommended..then within 3 or so demand should level.

I'm sure there's a million factors and variables in each individual tank though

I would think you have great experience in this area since you add stuff ALL the time

That's perfect! Check this evening and if it's in that range..YOU'RE GOOD! Test for a couple more days at same times to confirm...haha..that's awesome..better than expected!

8.37 here... Been doing water changes to keep everything in line... thank heavens for AWC... spent 400, but maybe the best 400 I've spent on the tank besides the Trident.

Getting hot in here......

 

[sadrobotz]

Morning! Gonna be another hot one here today, just got word my daughter’s early learning center is closed today due to a broke A/C unit, it’ll be too hot for the little ones to inside all day . Oh well, gives me time to try and clean my messy house up and to stress over these nems which two have now wedged into rocks lol

Yep, in the mid 90s here today. Don't stress about the nems.. They just need a bit of time to adjust

Thank you for reassuring me, stressing over little things is (unfortunately) my mantra for right now haha. Yah it’s going to be miserable today, my house doesn’t have A/C either so it’s about to be time to shut the windows

I wake up at 5:30am for work. I open all my window to cool the house (and for pH of course) then when it gets hot I close. I have AC, but don't use it unless I have to
