Well, My LFS advised me to try the chemical - Stability; to Cycle the tank with and after a weeks worth these are the readings taken at noon today. temp - 80.5 SG - 1.024 PH - 8.0 Ammon - 0.00 ppm Nitrite - 0.00 ppm Nitrate - 20 ppm. I dont have test kits yet for Alkalinity or calcium... Am thinking that a 10% water change is in order and to see what the Nitrate comes down to???? or perhaps a 20%?? ...
Well, after having the live rock in the tank for about a week, this "critter" was finally large enough to take a photo of. Not sure what he is, but am Happy none the less that he's here. I would think he's some sorta filter feeder? Anyways, Slow news day here in New Mexico... lol. Aaron
