Calcium, Alkalinity & Underwater Epoxy

[Lynn]

Hi Beverly,
Your parameters are good except for a tad high on the cal. Although some like it up to 500 they say its hard on the pumps then. I just use the kent turbo calcium or the aragamight to keep my levels up and I haven't had any problems. Much easier then those reactors (I think) In fact I have one sitting here disconnected if anyone wants one for free.
The apoxy's are great to attaching corals to your rocks. I love the "gel" glue as well. I can even take a polyp and stick it on with that stuff...even through the slime!
Do you still have your seahorse's?

Hi Lynn,

I don't think Ca levels of 420 ppm are too high, though IIRC, natural salt water has Ca levels of 380 ppm (please correct me if I am wrong). Perhaps you are thinking of the original poster's Ca levels when replying to me?

Have not kept SHs for about 2 years now.
