Hi Guys,

Hope your readings are getting to the Zone Dragon. But like Incysor said, it's hard to keep that PH at 8.3. I've never been able to do it, just around 8.0.

As far as the kent products go, I'm the user of Phytomax which Incysor talks about. It's wierd how 1 drop does 50 gallons, it's potent stuff Incysor.

I do this: Grab 8 oz purified drinking water and add 1 drop and mix. Since 8 oz is for a 50 gallon tank I only pour in 2 oz for my 10 gallon tank. After doing this for about 1 week I have doubled the dose to 2 drops in 8 oz and then only 2 oz go to my tank.

I'm starting to see a noticable difference, and it's because the more animals you have the more they take. So 2 drops is about right. It's great stuff and was only 20 bucks, it'll last forever, with my size tank.

Dragon has some green stuff that made his tank more green than mine but it also made his two corals go nuts with happiness according to him.

I recommend the Kent marine Phytomax, very small Icysor it's about the size of Visine Eye Drops and can either be refrigerated or not, you can decide.

Yep I've got both the phytomax and the chromamax. I use a mix of the two.

birth of copepods

My tank is covered in them, it's like they came in overnight. You can see them crawling all over the place. It's very neat to finally see some life in there other than the things I've bought.
