Well after a week or so of hoping the fuge lights running would stablize my pH and bring my ORP up I finally decided to dose to get my mg up.
pH last night was 8.05 and ORP was 330, and mg was at 1150 still.
I dumped a cup and a half of Epsom salt into the tank and this morning the pH was up to 8.15, the ORP was at 380, and I'll have to test the mg tonight. I'm hoping it bumped it up to 1300 or so...
I also added 50 snails and 15 crabs about a week ago. I've got them busy cleaning up the diatoms...
One more week and I'm firing up the metal halides and starting to add my first corals, I'm also going to add the mandarin I've had in the QT tank since I tore this thing down...
It's almost go time.
