So a quick update....
Bought parts to make a Pulley Hanger for my lights.
But first, trying to finish installing 2 new faucet sets complete from wall out. (Temporarily losing the battle).
Got my light timer working now woohoo!!!
Still gotta figure out the pH problem with my water.
Greg....The readings I gave were low yes. The readings were taken from the freshly mixed ro/di saltwater. Then again from the tank after a few hours with the new water in the tank. My readings are coming from the salt mix before it even enters the tank. I thought this salt was supposed to be "balanced"?
Cause Carey uses the same salt and she doesn't have any problems with pH with the fresh mix. Her's is right on the money. Am wondering if maybe I have a bad batch of that too.
I know I'm doing the Salifert testing right. I can't mess up the Hanna Meter, unless I'm "holding it the wrong hand or something" lol.
So til I can figure out the water issues, I'm hestitant to buy anything, corals, fish or even equipment.
As I sound like a broken record, I should not be having to dose anything right now, not pH, not calicium, nothing. I don't have anything in my tank to affect that stuff. I am about ready to quit for a bit and take another "breathe, calm and regroup" break from the tank and not even think about it for awhile. All I'm doing is going around in circles. And while I'm going around in circles, all I can do is watch and hope my 3 corals, 2 crabs, 2 shrimp and snails survive this water mess.
Sorry, just feeling lost.........And I go back to work and won't have time to research or read and 2 weeks of vacation gone again.
