Thanks for being patient guys..
Ok when I got back from SC I did my normal change...mind that I've been keeping my Kh up a little(I've been battling cyano).
I also have been using Coralife salt for the past couple of months
11/21/05
readings before change: KH-8
Calcium-360
after 10 gallon change: KH-8
Calcium-390
*add cal and kh buffer
11/22/05
KH-12
Calcium-435
11/23/05
KH-11
Calcium-420
*add cal. buffer
11/25/05 (got a magnesium test kit)
KH-10
Calcium-450
Magnesium-960(ohhh a little low)
Ok this is the logging Ive been doing the past week. Ive got a pretty simple setup: overflow,sump skimmer, return. I have no reactor or anything, real easy and simple.
Oh and Im gonna mention that when I pulled my old skimmer the hoseclamps I had been using had started to rust..I dont know if this effects parameter stability, but I thought I'd throw that out there.
