    80/20 Rule of Reefkeeping

    Great write up Krish.....Now for me the 80/20 rule is a bit different. It consists of keeping a budget at say 20% and trying not to exceed it by 80%. :) Seriously though, that's a great perspective of things and is good information to remember. This way of thinking keeps the Hobby...

    Reef Salt Brands

    I also use bright well and have found the same results. It might have to be switching to Tunze salt because availability for Bright well has become a problem. I did use Reef Crystals but found I had to make adjustments, with Brightwell all I have to bump is my Alk., and I am OK with that!! :)

    Pyradmid Snails.. Which wrasse to get..
