The Ph probe has been working just fine since the move, so I didnt see any reason to recalibrate it. The Ph / Temp probes are in the overflow.

If you have the solutions out, you might as well calibrate it. It takes 5 minutes and then you'll know.

Its already recalibrated.... First 10+% water change done... second one is mixing....

thats like a 15% change today of the original water.... if I do the same tomorrow.... another 2x 10% then thats 33% of the original water gone in 2 days.... I'll keep this up for a week or so until I'm at a 70/30 split....

I got busy and did more water changes with larger containers... might be neurotic but I have changed a total of 52g over 2 changes... so on the fractional water change math, its 46g of new!!! out of 107g. I'm satisfied - for tonight.

Tonight while making dinner I ended up cutting my thumb and a few minutes later was standing looking into a box where my frag'ing stuff was and saw my Gorilla Glue. Yep, the cut is sealed!!

great stuff...

Gorilla glue is great stuff but do you actually use it for fragging? Thought it was about as toxic as it gets...

I use it on frags nothing bad so far..."

My ph probe has bit the dust... Weird it won't stay calibrated... Need another.

This whole thing was a probe problem....
