O and my alk is four

I said my calc is dropping 75-100ppm a day and a half, to two days. So about 50ppm a day, give a take. So that 20ppm within those two days still is not enough to up it. I will start doseing some more then. Sorry about all that. I was just following the beginner directions on the bottle, instead...

I've been useing red sea, and seachem test kits. They both have been testing the same. At first I did think it was a testing error, so I took a sample of my water to my lfs. They use a test kit called API, and got the same readings. My test kits are no more then a month old. All products I have...

Thanks, i'll look it to it.

Whats the name of this coral. Its splitting at the moment, so it may be a little hard to tell. But any info about this coral would be much appreciated. Thanks

Within the last couple months I've been having some calcium(calc), and alkalinity(alk) problems. I've tested my water, and every time my calc, and alk is off. I mean off. I like to keep my calc levels around 420-450. I can test my calc 8:00 one day, dose to were it needs to be and a day later...

Thanks. That's what I was thinking to. :( I was just glad it happend now, instead of down the road. I would like to get a better clam, after this cal spell. Well that's what I'll call it. About a month or so after my clam died my calc, alk went out of controll. My mag, ph, etc... Is all good...

Yes they are. And i understand what your talking about. Were i work we had many come back, were a row of three led's had went out. Or the area around the plug melted. Many that didnt run a glass top, had plug problems. What i understand, when the salt evaporates over time there is a build up of...

Heres some quick pics, of my corals! The lights just turned on, so some of them are not fully out yet. And of course some pics of the tank it's self, along with the lights.

Thanks!! Its been a work in progress. I also understand about the tangs. They both should be in at least a 125 Gallon aquarium. But none the less, they both seem to be doing fine. There both fat, happy tangs from what i see. Lol Good luck on the upgrade!

My 75Gal reef setup. Its still in the process of some adds!

O I just seen the "Debating on tangs" part. Lol, sorry.

Sorry for the bad news. But your tank is way to small to fit all those tangs. I would say mabey two tangs, depending on how big they get. Max.

I have the marineland LED REEF Lights on my 75Gal. The 48" puts out about 3340Lums or so. I have had real good luck with them. I have some sps corals, and they grew like crazy under them. I've had the lights for about 6-7 months above my sps corals. And all the corals have been doing better...

O and when I got them they were the same size.
