    Just a suggestion from me. If you break a small piece of rock off and pulverize it into sand size particles, then put it in a test vial with some tank water and leave it for a couple days any "Cu" will leach out into the water which will then be testable with a copper kit. Boomer in the...

    top off: kalkwasser or saltwater

    It depends on your calcium needs. A highly and even a low stocked SPS tank will quickly use up the calcium in the way your describing. A low stocked LPS you may be fine. The addition of Kalk will also aid in your PH levels. Each tank is different and every tank is a constant juggling act:)...

    I had a snafu like that with my controller and found fuses hiding all over the place. Have you taken the controller head apart and see if there is a micro fuse/fuses in there?

    becket injector question

    Have you cleaned and inspected the pump housing, impellar, and the volute. Maybe it's not pushing as much water due to build up which intern is not sucking the air in the back two becketts.

    Finding small-med size tank

    There are many threads on drilling a tank. I did it with a dremel, diamond bits and a spray bottle. Take your time and make sure its not tempered would be the two KEY things to know.

    Finding small-med size tank

    With the kits you tend to see a lot of filler to make profit margins. It will take more work and more money to find quality components but in the long run you will get better results. Plus you can avoid all the things you didn't end up needing or wanting that come in the kits.
