Yeah this hobby is like a black-hole ###### all our resources in... but I really can't think of another hobby that offers the same level of satisfaction... come on... a piece of the ocean at home? How many people can actually own that? lol

Wait for my tank to cycle... then we go shopping spree!!! lol

hahah bro, nice way to put that.. i got another way to put it... Liquifying our resources...

Done with ur water changing session? How often u change water bro? How much? I am also seriously considering using another brand for sea salt... started my Nano with Tropic Marin, then change to Aqua Medic. Then got 2 more 4kg boxes free from LFS for Perc90. The remaining box is finishing soon... what brand u suggest I go for?

Hrmz, seriously, i don't really know much abotu salts. Maybe you can do a search on the forum, think some time ago there was a thread comparing all the salts. I was using ME all along, but switched to 1 bag of "forgot what brand" salt which costs aroung $28 per bag instaed of the close to $40 a bag of ME salt costs. I don't do any extra parameter tests apart from the basics so i cant really comment on what the differences are too. :unsure: As for water changes i chaneg approx 20L (8%) a week....
