    Question about Alk and Ca

    i would do a decent sized water change. by adding more calc into the system i believe you could cause the two to join and precipitate out of solution.

    What salt mix are you using

    lol @ your user name. salt will not be the underlying issue of hair algae. unless for some reason it was one of those bad batches. get yourself a phosphate test kit, especially if you plan on keeping corals. most likely due to PO4, over feeding, over lighting. similar conditions to cyano, but...

    Help?

    the fish were not sick with a disease, they died from complications from the water not being at the proper levels. they do not leave toxins in the water that will kill other fish if introduced. unless of course, you left them in the tank to fester and rot, causing an ammo spike.

    Help?

    yea cut the light down to 12 hours for sure. at least. maybe even less. for now a hydro is ok for your purposes, but clean it with white distilled vinegar to keep it accurate. i think most 10g tanks run without skimmers. skimmers act as mechanical filtration and the LR / LS acts as...

    Help?

    what test kit are you using? are you relying on the local fish store (LFS) water testing? the algae is called cyanobacteria or "cyano" / red slime in the trade. its is caused by a few factors. most common is lack of flow in the tank, over feeding (which leads to higher phosphate levels) and...
