The store actually wasn't from in town here, I was out of town a few times recently, and purchased them then.
Thanks Tony!

The enter button on the RKE doesn't work at all today. I've posted about it in the RKE bug thread, and we'll see what comes back from Digital Aquatics.
I am hoping that DA will eventually roll out support for an SG probe, Ca. prob, and dKH probe. Those three things would make my life so much simpler in terms of testing. I've also noticed since running ozone, which is injected into the skimmer, that I can smell when my skimmer needs to be clean. The skimmer head needs to be cleaned every 2-3 days, and you can tell because the "tank smell" gets stronger. The downside to have to clean out the skimmer so frequently is that the smell is so foul, we have to keep the front door open for an hour after cleaning it. I don't know what we are going to do in the winter

Nope, its not nearly as bad anymore. There is one patch, in the front left corner, but that is about it.

Since my holiday plans were cancelled I've been hanging out with my tank all weekend, and some very cool things have come around.
This morning my dKH is 9! I have hit my target level! My Calcium is a bit on the low side, but I'm super happy that I am almost at the point where I no longer have to fiddle with dosing! Since we've added on the RKE almost everything in regards to my tank is automated, just the way I like it! I do a once a month day of maintenance; pump cleaning, reflector cleaning, probe calibration, etc. On a daily basis I clean the glass and feed the fish. A couple times a week the skimmer gets cleaned. My tank is now at the point where it is very hands free, and I get to spend a lot of time enjoying it, rather then working on it. Now if I could only win the lotto so I could go buy more clams and corals.

   This is Friday, we fed double the Nori we normally due to cover for our absence over the next couple of days. However I ended up staying home....  The naso is getting wide!  RKE is chugging along, aside from the fact that the enter button doesn't work.   The mess of starting the tank is still around, but its slowly diminishing!

From Coral Master
 From WickedFrags.com    From Red Coral   Random Zoas that survived the move & subsequent disaster from my move in November 2007. They are open, and seem to have come back from where they were in December. However, they aren't growing, but damn are they pretty!   Last edited by michika; 08-03-2008 at 07:04 PM.

Thanks Murray!
So my RKE is having some more problems. The enter button stopped working recently, and Digital Aquatics just recently got back to me. They are sending me a new head unit. Thankfully *knock on wood* I haven't been one of those whose unit has shut everything off in the tank. I am also baking in here today, its 27.4 degrees in our place. So lesson learned, no more places with less then one window that opens. I also desire AC in our new place... Just to tide you all over SUMP PHOTOS!   This is what I frequently see every time I sit down on the couch.  Last edited by michika; 08-08-2008 at 11:28 PM.
