    Back to basics- 29g adventure

    I'm glad you got a good order in and your happy man. There's nothing better than a free frag. ;) I'm going to try to do this once a day water change thing and see if I see any improvement in the tank. I saw some protein buildup on the surface water, so skimming it off the top during a water...

    I mixed up a one gallon water change and did a water change. I think a one gallon water change will be easier over time if I can do that every day instead of ten gallons every month. Everything is looking great. Gonna do a calcium and alkalinity check in the morning.

    divorce

    Your obviously still not happy. Might just be time to move on. Remember, she basically gets half of everything. Put together a course of action. Keep a journal of her shenanigans, and start saving for a long divorce proceeding. Good luck!

    Trump tax plan

    I'm not for Carson. He said that he would make a law to take away peoples assault rifles like the AR-15 (ArmaLite) who live in large cities. He isn't very pro 2A which is one of my major concerns with any candidate. I stand with Rand because he is as libertarian as we can get. I would love to...

    Thanks bud. And the tank is coming along nicely. I'm keeping the levels up and I am seeing a lot of growth from the sps in the tank. I would really like to add some new frags into the system when I can, but money is all of the sudden right. We will see about it in the near future.

    Ran another test. Looks like my calcium falls by 10mg/L a day currently. I'm tempted to increase the lights intensity from 60% both channels to 70% both channels.
