So first I gave him a chunk of food. He seemed to like that and perking up quite a bit. Then I rechecked some tests.
Ph 8.2
Alk was 18!!!! What the heck!!
I just did a 5 gal water change to help bring it down. I'll test it again in a little while.
My bubble tip seems back to normal... Shew!!!
What's wrong with my bubble tip? He was great this morning then I walked by and saw this? Can anyone explain? He's all shrively and his mouth is open.

I've been dosing 8.4 and alkaline buffer to help raise both. I haven't...
Right now I have a 46 gallon bowfront but I'm about to upgrade to an 75 gallon soon. Trying to get all on my stuff together. I ordered a custom acrylic sump that should be in soon. I'm pretty excited about it!
Good lord!!! That's expensive!! @monique!! The kill a watt says I run about 3kwh a day and my rate varies between 11-15cents per kWh for my for me it costs about $10-$14 a month just for my tank!
