    Should Neptune's 2 TDS water worry me?

    The water in Campbell (still SJ) comes out of the tap at ~200-250, depending on time of year. The water up in Berkeley has a lower value, at ~30 or so TDS out of the tap instead, and I know someone that actually has used it before for years to mix and use in their tanks. If you check out the...

    Bounce Shroom?

    Hard to see what colors that ric is under all that blue. Seen plenty of these around instead and picked one up awhile back. Under whites, next to a "rainbow" Florida. That JB does look slightly different; it'll be interesting to see how it does over time. Momma JB, who's slowly getting her...

    Usedg4 xr30 pro worth?

    Looks like I'm not the only one looking to offload some G4 Pros. :p Never got around to it since they've been in storage. Can't believe that you still have some G3s. @Thales

    Canon EF

    Yeesh, big lenses, but understandable for wildlife. Decent time to head to Yosemite, especially with all the snow that's currently up there. Would make for some dynamic shots. Just make sure to bring a decent tripod if you're shooting Firefall. Last time I did that was like 15 years ago...

    finicky coral

    It's all somewhat connected, mainly through stress to corals. With low nutrient levels, in this case nitrates, you want to keep things in balance. The reason why lower alk levels is suggested isn't because we're looking at an advanced topic, but rather it's a way to reduce stress to the corals...

    finicky coral

    For ULNS I would stick to 7ish and not into the 8.0+ range, especially if your nitrates are undetectable. I've even been in the 6.5 range for ULNS. Once you're above the 8.0+ range, you'll see tips start to burn and the onset of STN.

    What is this?

    I've seen majanos in that color morph before and those look awfully like them. I'd avoid adding them to your system.
