Totally understand. When I bought my 180g, had an opportunity to get a 250g on clearance. Couldn't find a doorway in the house that was big enough to get it through. Total bummer.

So, after reading a couple of threads, I brought out the cal and alk kits to see where I was at. Despite doing 35g pwc every week, I was still low. I started dosing... Everything seems to be taking off... We shall see...

Just for a frame of reference, I do a 30 gallon PWC every other week and dose B-Ionics about every 4 days. Seems to be working ver well.

Beautiful nem! Been following your threads in passing since work has been crazy. I wasn't aware that BTAs came in orange. I can't wait to see a pic of it with all the lights are on! Where did you find something rare like this?
