Well I think the issue is a serious deficiency of fluorine per ICP test? It is at .59 vs 1.2 recommended guideline. Looking up the deficiency would explain sudden RTN of corals. Everything else looking pretty much ok Although Lanthanum came in at 3.44. Tin came in st 5.44 and silicon at 81.

Arghh. Gone again.

Thank you both @JVU & @Alexander1312 for your input on this. I do have carbon. I have been leery in deploying in only that in the past I have been very deficient in certain trace elements -namely iodine..So hopefully the ICP will come back soon. Right now things have stabilized and all coral...

As I am coming up on my last ATI test -contemplating switching to another company. What is their turn around rate @JVU ? I like ATI- but its usually at least week turn around being shipped to Germany.

Might be efficient if they posted directly to BAR? I have to say - I wonder how people have sw tanks who have never heard of BAR..

Gorgeous

Algae js free!

Can it also strip out trace elements?

Never know carbon help with coral produced toxins..good to know that..

Love this thing.

It’s a floater made by tropic Marin. As long as the water is 77 degrees fairly accurate compared to ICP testing..

For a hydrometer? Or for a refractometer?

Hydrometer

Ok. I’ll start looking around at that. Thx

Good to know that.. once the nitrates had bottomed out -I got them to 2 immediately but after that it gingerly increases.. One step at a time.. I’ll start with the 10 steps first and some carbon.

I don’t know if I would classify it as a ccraah Most of my corals are fine (so far) just mostly the smaller acros.. and one big birds nest.. What I don’t understand is why it’s happening consequentially? That is -one goes-then another goes. I could better understand if suddenly a bunch...

Prob couldn’t hurt..

Hmmmm
