I did something which I would regret my whole life!!!

Was very hungry today after a day's schooling so I opened the freezer and saw these wonderful stuff which I presumed was chocolate.

I picked one up and took a bite :D

Let me tell you, it is the most digusting thing I had ever eaten!!!

It then came to me that these were bro Gouldian's special blend, super potent fish food!! :sick::sick:

Haha...thanks for making the effort to go through this tedious process :bow:

Anyway, was studying too much for tests that I did not really monitor the water quality and guess what?

kH had actually fell to 5dKH!!!

No wonder my SPS had stagnated in growth these few days

I think that the carbonates are being used up by the chaeto during its growth which resulted in the decreasing value

I have since increased my CR bubble rate to a bubble a second and dosed about 12g of Seachem Reef Builder today. Will monitor the kH values tomorrow.

All other parameters remain the same :lol:

Say, just a thought! Think you can qualify for Fear Factor! :lol: Jem's right! They do look like brownies! All you need to go with Gouldian's S-blend is some vanilla ice-cream! :sick::lol:

Well, if you have noticed in Biology practicals, we do add sodium hydrogen carbonate to provide the CO2 needed for photosynthesis. Therefore, I concluded that the growth of the chaeto will cause a drop in kH :lol:

And other types of soluble carbonates include potassium hydrogen carbonate (alkaline) and calcium hydrogen carbonate (CR effluent). Of course there are many more to the list... :P:P

plants actually do use the CO2 frm the dissolution of carbonates for photosynthesis... if i remember correctly frm some planted tank book which i read... if u do not have enough CO2 in the tank... the plants will take to the carbonate in the water for photosynthesis and thus cause an imbalance in Kh...

well my memory has been bad recently so yeah i might be wrong... any expert in planted tank care to chip in?

Glad you understood bro decentkid :lol::lol:

And I forgot to take the tank shot today as I came home at 7pm after 3 extra lessons!!!! :pinch::pinch: (sorry jem :paiseh: )

Something is horribly wrong in my system as my kH fell to around 3dKH :angry::angry:

Have since added another dose of 12g of Seachem Reef Builder and lowered my CR effluent to a drop per 2 seconds

Hope conditions will improve tomorrow :nc:

I don't know whether it's the school work or what but I am quite muddle headed these few days.

Remember I said that my kH reading was 3.5dKH? Well, that was in low resolution mode and so in actual fact, it is 7dKH <_<

Have just checked it again and it has increased to 8dKH already :D

Was browsing through RC when I came across a thread on pics of "Scripps Pink Millepora". I found that the purple mille that I have looks awfully similar to one of the pics posted :yeah::yeah:

Check it out!!! (pic taken from RC)
