That treatment stopped the RTN on my blue pocillopora instantly. The coral is doing great now.

You're talking about hydrogen peroxide?

Io for how much? That's highway robbery. If u need salt go on Jlaquatics website, they have it for cheap. If you need some one to ship it up then let me know I'll see if I can get a few boxes and ship it up to u. Btw I don't think there is anything wrong with a beer or 3 while you are working on your tank as long as the fish don't get wasted, we are okay.

Robbery doesn't describe it. It's straight up sodomy. Non consentual. No warning.

I was just looking at J&L and saw theirs on for $40. I'm sure I can get it for about that price in Edmonton, I just have no opportunity to get down there right now. Had I known what they would charge me, I would have got Red Coral to mail me one.

I HATE THIS PET STORE!!!

Hopefully after this water change my levels will start to come back to normal. I'm going to do a 30G change every second day until all levels are back to acceptable.

Oh, and yes, funny you should ask... I am running out of test kit reagents. FML!!!

Hey man, you ARE in Fort Mac! Everything is expensive, that's why everyone makes the big bucks!

[Myka]

Omg $146.99??? I've only seen once a higher price than that. They must be buying it at retail and then marking up 300%. Yikes.

Well of course

The one you get easily at the drug store, the 3% bottle.

No, no.. you've got it backwards... Everyone makes the big bucks, so all the places charge accordingly. I almost feel bad, because as a result of this, I don't really support the community. Oh well, I'm over it.

Thanks, I'll try this.

Well, I have now officially started the process of changing the water out with new salt. I put 30g on line today, so hopefully levels start to some to where they need to be. I'll do another 30g every 36 hours or so until I run out of this $147 bucket of Instant ocean. Hopefully by then, all is back to normal.

I would try to do bigger water changes if you can. This way you aren't wasting as much salt and I think it'll be better for your system in the long run.
