Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to make sure I have everything in order for my first frags that I'll be getting this weekend. I plan on keeping simple things initially...mostly softies.

My tank has been up and running since November. It has 180 lbs of LR and 150 lbs of Aragonite sand. I just used every test kit I have and want to fine tune anything that requires it before this weekend.

Ammonia - 0
Nitrite - 0
Nitrate - Around 5ppm
Ph - Around 8.1
Phosphate - 0 on my scale...but I'm sure it's in there
CA - 340-360 mg/L
KH - 11 dKH or 197 ppmKH

I have B-Ionic and a Kent Magnesium supplement as well...though I'm not sure if it's appropriate to add those right now. I'm also brewing a new batch of water as I'm typing this. I'm using Reef Crystals now....before I was using SeaChem's Instant Ocean.

Right now I'm still battling the algae...I'd like to think it's getting better though.

Any input is greatly appreciated.

R, Jamie
