    Thanks for the input guys, I have passed on all your links and reccomnedations to my family!

    Also requested was a Phosban Reactor (and media)
    Salifert Test Kits (CB pets carries the full line now)
    and a geforce 6800... but I doubt I will convince anyone to spend 480$ on me... :( so that probably won't happen.

    Not positive but I believe poth refratometers in both of those links are the same one. By the way, great price on that one cbazhaw linked to. I have the same one and it works great, just check it under a light and your readings are very simple and it is ATC.

    I just dip my finger into the tank and lick it off to determine salinity.
