snails again
Well i’ve ordered
4 different snails will be arriving in the post sometime. I’m getting them delivered to work, now i don’t expect this to be a problem cos it’s accepted that we will get stuff sent there, but a box of water labelled “livestock” might be one of the more interesting things to turn [...]
Replaced pH Probe Battery on Calium Reactor.
The pinpoint pH probe which monitors the effluent pH coming out of the calcium reactor needed a batter replacement. Typically the battery last for about 3 months.
When changing the battery its a good time to calibrate the pH probe. The probe calibration went perfectly required minimal adjustments.
New Bellus Angelfish Picture
It's been about a year since I posted a picture of this fish. I love this little guy. Great color, swims funny, always out and about.

poor guppies
Another one of the guppies died today, they really do drop off with depressing regularity. Hopefully there isn’t anything that we’re doing wrong, water conditions seem normal, everybody else is fine it’s just the particular ones that has trouble.
Acropora Polyp Extension Macro Picture added.
Another example of an Acropora showing an excellent recovery and new growth.

Ordered AquaController Pro ORP probe.
Ordered an ORP probe for the AquaController Pro, not that I needed one, just wanted one. An ORP probe provides a number somewhere between 200 and 500 where the higher the number the better. The important thing is not the actual number but the trend over time. For example if its always around 325 to 350 and one day its at 200 I would give the tank a close inspection looking for something wrong such as a dead fish.
woooo
