Double checking parameters is always best, rather than waiting for corals to indicate something is amiss. The numbers look good overall.

I'm only running one liter of Biospheres (np biopellets) and there's a chance nitrate is rising. I felt like it was a little off from the pure yellow I normally see, but I'll keep testing it weekly to be sure.

    Do you know of an app that helps you remember and track tank maintenance? The only one I know of is from Current USA called the Nano Planner http://www.current-usa.com/support/nano-planner

    I     can see where something like this would be really useful in maintaining and tracking your tank parameters.

    I also found this one: http://www.aquariogest.net/ads/?gclid=CNLhvpzu2asCFZFV7Aod8HHhSQ

    There's another app out there for the iPhone, but I don't remember the name off hand. It's something like Tank Trakrr or some other clever variation. Just ask again or do a search for "reef" in the apps section of iTunes.

    Shawn - you should be testing stuff frequently, to keep things stable. When I do the full gamut of tests, that's when I update the spreadsheet and post it here and on melevsreef.
