Been a while since I stopped in... got an email notification of your update to your thread... must say its looking real good! Cant wait to start up my new tank end of this year! I miss it!
(Sorry for the Highjack OP)
I am a partner in a software development company currently, but have been in the I.T. field since I was 15. The TRUE definition of "High Tech Redneck". most of the articles I have published are in national trade magazines. I pioneered the "Technology Minute" in teh...
Actually it's "Unkown" so i didnt list one. I am a finatic about quoting sources as i am a nationally published technical writer. I have actually looked (briefly) on the net and tried to find the original author, but was not succesful. i probably should at least list "unknown" shouldnt I?
All...
See... i gotta start timing my additions better... everytime i add something cool.. Yote comes in and one-ups me EVERY TIME!
:-) :-)
Nice corals and AWESOME shots Yote
In fact, It read slightly below. I stopped by the LFS and grabbed a bottle of R/O and went home and claibrated the Refract. Then I used the 35PPT reference fluid and it was dead on 35, or 1.026.
Afterward i tested the tank water and it nailed 1.026
AMAZING how bad the mechanical SG testers...
Cool Biff! Cant wait to see... and with all yoru knowledge, you will not be that far behind my 125, so i can learn from you as you are bringing it up! Good Luck for sure! Cant wait to see it!
believe it or not.... Alan and crew got a reduct shipment from a valued customer and I was able to sneak in and scoop a couple of these up.
So... I ponied up! Went by again today and they had a ton of zoas, nothing spectacular. One nice chalace they have had for a while... i have had my eye...
After further study... my caliobration fluid is REFERENCE fluid that should be EXACTLY equal to 35ppt Salinity. so it would be VERY VERY close to my DT water. Gonna give RO water a shot tonight and see whats up.
Thahnks guys!
Dadgummmm Winny,
