what are your params? how is the Damsel doing? what are you wanting to add next? are you still adding stability as directed after the 1st week of daily dosing? | |

| well you know me:) I won't say yeah go run and buy a pair a clowns $$ because your system is new. but if you do continue to use the reduced directions on the stability and also add the correct amount after your water changes for awhile then when you start seeing your params at a steady 0 on the trites,trates and amm you can back off for a week test again if you are still 0 then start using the stability only after you do water changes by this time the good bacteria should be built up enough. try not to add to many fish too fast because each fish you add also adds to the bio load on your system. | |

| Uh oh you know what i look like now. Lol yep thats the summer toy. I act to crazy to have two wheels so three is more safer. Its a fun little bike. 0-60 a tad under 4 seconds. But anyways back to the thread. I just did a roughly 6 gallon wc. Im wondering do i bother testing the water now or wait til tomorrow. since cindy is not on for me to ask her i will just wait til tomorrow. I will update paramaters then. | |

| I think can-ham works when I had a saltwater I always waited at least 12 hours to check but that was back in the 70's |

| Alright well there are fish as you can see. They seem to be adjusting very well. Today is the first day i can really say the diatoms are taking over my rock that was white. It looks cool. The hermits are going to town on the stuff. I picked these two clowns up off a local reefer who was shutting his tank down due to being deployed to iraq soon. We will see how they do. | |

| Yep looks like an ocellaris and a misbarred clown. They look nice. They must have been well cared for. I see some coralline algae on your rock too! | |

| The larger is a true perc and the other is a mis barred. That is what i was told and from my research seems true. I think i saw something moving on one of my rocks. So i stared at it. and there was something moving slowly. I think its one of those copepod things cindy was talking about. Are they ok? And also the guy i got the clowns from pulled a small zoa from his sand. It had randomly sprouted. I put it in and its moved. Can they move on their own too or what. It has four little buttons and three are opened, Pretty cool stuff goin on over here | |
