    I cant keep sps alive.

    Little update. Took some water to the LFS to have tested and my Nitrates where at 40 ppm while my test kit said they where 0. So my test kits are bad and i tossed them. Would nitrates of 40 cause sps to die off?

    I think a black background on that tank would make a HUGE diffrence on how well everything else looks. Cool Clowns and nice zoas too.

    I cant keep sps alive.

    Just a small update. the 3 SPS frags that where dying when i made this thread are still living and there decline to death seems to have reversed and they look much better. I guess the carbon worked in pulling out the leathers toxins.

    Should an ignition breathalyzer device be installed on every vehicle?

    I cant keep sps alive.

    i have not been running carbon at all. i just added some to my phos reactor. I have a few sps that are alive in the tank that i got a week ago from a local reefer in a trade that have been looking worse and worse each day. Hopefully the carbon will have a positive effect.
