As I was reminded that it is, in-fact, Testing Tuesday (thank you @fishguy242 ), the numbers are in. Remember when I said that I'd need to keep a close eye on calcium...?

I need to figure out what is spiking my PO4. I just changed out the GFO and carbon yesterday.

I did not go buy them and I have no idea how much the CCB was. I been reading and learned(but do not know if it is true) that CBB may pick on LPS and clams. I do not have any clams but have a few LPS at the moment. I do not want to get a CBB if LPS is on their diet.

Hey Styx,,,,how do you like the Hanna MG tester? Is it a pain to use.
I like it, but it is inaccurate. It gives a ballpark of where you're at. It isn't a pain to use at all. Just make sure your measurements are precise. I'm actually moving toward Jay Hemdal's camp of no mag testing.

You have as much chance of getting a CBB to eat prepared foods as you do of it eating LPS. Either way, a fish probably best left out of your tank, sadly.

The Dainty Dictator has been working from home the last two days, so today I am wrapping Christmas gifts and acclimating coral and clean up crew additions.

They go in a bag on a shelf. Trust me I have every intention of putting them in the drawer they go in. It's only been 6 months, please stop reminding me about them.
That, sounds like my husband.

I wish I had all of the Hanna checkers… so expensive though. I have the copper checker and I love that thing
