Good morning fishies, my water is pretty clear now, I wonder why... Oh wait I didn't rinse my filters in tap water 
I am so happy that mistake is corrected now lol. Me and the hydroids are going to war. I got my flac jacket and kevlar helmet on and my magnetic scrubber loaded... lol I don't care where they go just stay off my front glass you buggers... Attack.... Sorry I'm bored.
Lfs told me to run carbon from time to time to keep water clear. And feedback on this anyone? If so how often and for how long I figured if I do I'll put it in one slot behind my phosphate removing pad... Good idea?
I'm trying to get ahold of someone that I talked to last week about buying some pulsating xenia and cabbage leather corals for $5 each
Gonna buy at least 2 of each the only issue is its almost a 2 hr trip one way

Its official I hate Walmart. I called yesterday and they said they have cases of distilled water. Drove 20 minutes, they didn't. They told me they had a truck this morning and said they would hold 10 cases for me. Drive there and guess what.they didn't hold them. Asked for the empty boxes and I would get them off the shelf and was told they already crushed them. Errr.

Thank you Tony, yeah lesson learned
The Duncan opens up a little then retracts
When do you think I should put the reef chilli in?
Give them a couple days. Watch for the feeding tentacles on the candy cane. The Duncan will eat your finger if you let it. He likes the frozen food.

The flake stick to him and then it looks like he stuffed his tentacles into his mouth. That's cool
I think one box of the salt may be bad it looks moist and kinda, looks like it has some mold spots. I don't know if I should try it or not

I checked and all 3 look kinda moist. I think I'll try it and just test it and see. I'll remove black spots in the one. Its not hard it just isn't powdery like the salt I've got now.
the only issue I think I would have is it not dissolving right only one way to tell

Give it a whack and let me know.
I'd do a calcium and KH test before and after pwc since it may be different. It shouldn't be but better safe than sorry. The same company makes them both.

Yeah I made a thread asking for opinions. I don't see any issues. the reef crystals should raise my calcium. Its got extra stuff in it
It's suppose to be good stuff, I just never used it.
