Thank you very much!
Well I am 4 hours into doing this water change. Made 35 gallons of saltwater.
Took out all the rocks and rinsed them in a bucket of saltwater. You should've seen how brown and disgusting the water was. Most likely because I had a major gfo accident that turned my tank brown and I finally got around to washing the rocks off.
I checked my Mg levels, and they were at 1000ppm. I raised it to 1100 but will add more tomorrow. I've read you shouldn't raise it more than 100 ppm per day. I want to get it to around 1350.
Will check alk and Ca when I get the mg stabilized.
I auto fragged my trumpet coral so once it recovers I'll be able to sell some pieces.
I know of one peppermint shrimp that for sure survived the big change today but haven't seen the other yet.
I also added a new pump so flow is awesome right now. Will probably need to adjust positioning later but for now looks like no dead spots. The corals are already starting to come out a bit more, so hopefully this is a sign of good things to come. I'm promising myself to start taking better care of the tank so I can some nicer stuff to look at!
