I'm still dialing in my tank and don't really know fair prices for stuff so just picked out some relatively inexpensive pieces I liked... no real strategy, just budget limited ;-)

Big thanks to @Srt4eric and the rest of the BAR members who helped organize and man our table. Was a fun little event and picked up a few new residents for my Rock Wall tank.

Looking forward to the event! Do we pick up tickets there, are we on a list somewhere...? This is my first of these types of events?

Put me down for one please. Just sent my payment.

That little patch of AOG's is from you. Hoping to be spreading the love soon.

Forgot to include a pic of the ops center

It's been 8 months since my last tank update. Parameters are stabilizing as I get into a better maintenance rhythm. The biggest improvement took just 2 inches. Early on, as my filter sock in my sump filled with gunk, if i didn't change it out in time (which I rarely did), the water would...

Agreed, I have two refractometers to validate Apex and its usually close but bounces around a lot.

I do mix my own and use an ATO. I find that the Neptune salinity checker is a bit "noisey" so not changing as fast as the graph may show.

H2O changes sometimes but prob not as often as I should.
