I finally got my newest corals settled in and thought I'd better test the water again. I wasn't able to find a place on this site listing the norms for a reef tank. I'm not sure but I think my nitrates might be a little high?
Current results:
nitrate 10 mg/l
nitrite 0
ph 8-8,2 (it's right in the middle between these two numbers)
calcium 380 (it's low)
ammonia 0
1.023
temp 79.2
I'm due for another water change in a couple of days unless you think I should do it sooner? I'm just getting ready to receive my last coral and I'd just as soon get the water straightened out over the weekend before I get my other coral. (yes, I did finally find a good sized red lobo)
Thank you!
