Tell them your dog needs to go to the vet. "They" never understand fish tanks because they are just picturing some cesspool 10-gallon tank with guppies. :twised:

Hunggi, don't quit with the C-Balance, it is a great product! I'm no fan of BRS additives. Especially for a smaller reef like yours where the cost isn't significant.
