    Salt mixing

    I did not know that. I've always noticed it mixed fast but for some reason thought it was better to let it mix over night.

    We're do you buy your salt?

    Drsfostersmith.com has fair prices and free shipping as long as you spend 49 dollars or more. I do feel bad for the delivery person though, must hate carrying those large buckets to the door

    Replacing female clown

    Fish lights came on in the morning and my female clown wasn't around. After a little investigation I could see a few hermit crabs feasting on my clown hidden deep in the rock work .:( This clown was my most active fish and ate like a champ. Never any sign of illness. I think a hermit crab...

    water change and nitrates

    Those levels of nitrate sound fine to me. I wouldn't worry about it. Also I believe it's safe to do numerous water changes without ill effects as long as the salinity and temperature match.
