I agree as you see it was tested today. I am going to take care of that.

How high should I keep the alk? I have been trying to get it up to 12 but my cal reactor hasn't been able to keep up with it that hi. it seems to be able to keep 9

Thanks Roger

Hey Roger, I keep my alk in the 9-10 range. What do you do for Mg, dose or in the reactor?

dose

I have had a hard time to get it up but the last dose was the bottom of my mix so I guess that it wasn't mixed well all the other times I dosed it, it didn't raise over 1300. odd that it settled at the bottom as I shack it well before each dose.

Why don't you add some Zeo Mag in your reactor so you don't have to add through dosing?

I plan on that next time I make an order. I didn't know about the stuff when I set up the reactor :(

I think I get the joke now. I used the program to post it because it saved a lot of time. I check my parameters every few days with some tests and others less often but. the programm already had all the info so I just selected the date ranges and then hit copy and post it was faster.

but funny bit.

Roger

I don't remember if I paid for that program or it was a free down load I have had it for a long time.

Hey Roger,

I guess if there are no valuse next to ammonia, no2, no3, po4 then it means 0?

But things look fine except for the mag which you already know about.

Thanks for the software link will use that insead of a notebook then.
