Are you not using RPS anymore?

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.

RPS has not met any of its claims at least for me. The worst part is I can't see what I am trying to dip, it's like I am bathing a smurf in blue water. Plus I can't stand the smell. lol I have an extra bottle if anyone wants it. FREE.

Default New Years update

Just want to wish everyone a Happy Chinese New Years!


Okay update.

I have noticed my tank water not as crystal clear as I like it to be. I do run carbon and I do do a thorough cleaning session along with my weekly water change but still it's cloudy. do do So I decided to run a uv and the very next day of running the uv (36W) the water cleared up. Guess it was the bacteria bloom that kept the water cloudy.

Tight fit.


Next is my newly acquired deltec kalk stirrer.



Installed and seems to be pretty decent.

I also acquired a UV unit today, with a very good chance of getting set up. Probably.
