I want to thank all of you for responding. I got me some salt today and mixed up a gallon to add for top offs. I'll test it in a couple of days to see if it's going up.

ill have to get me one of those first. im old school right now. im using a hydrometer until i can get a refractometer

is 1.020 to low

so i got my tank back finally and its up and running good. things are looking ok but im having issues with my salinity. its between 1.019 and 1.020. how can i raise this without messing anything up?

how about $100.00. Im going out of town for training with the new job and could use the money to pay for gas.

price drop to $125.00

I have a 29 gallon bow front tank with stand that I am looking to sell. It my fresh water tank at work. I am moving jobs and cant take it to the new place with me and can have it at the house per the home owner. My friend is taking the fish for his tank at work so i will empty out all of the water and rocks. Whats included: 29 gallon bow front tank nice 2 tone stand 2 hang on back filters rated each for a 20 to 40 gallon tank heater light (i may sell the light with it if my friend doesnt want it) - has Im looking to get $150.00 for everything. Here are a couple pictures of the set up.

I was told by a fellow reefer that I should try dosing it so I gave it a try. Again I know, it was stupid on my part for just following the crowd and I should have done some research but the local fish store told me the same thing (not disclosing the store name). I called my brother this morning and told him to stop the dosing and he said ok. I will have him do a water change also. Do you think this is whats cauing the brian coral to die?

Im going thave to test the iodine levels before I can say. I have been dosing iodine (the consentrated one). I had my brother put it in there about once a week. You know, He has been doing more frequent water changes then I use to and I read online that iodine gets replaced with regular water changes so maybe adding the drops on top of the more frequent water changes is causeing the levels to be to high. How do I bring down the iodine level if it is to high?

thanks. I had my brother change out the MH light. He stated that the tank looks a lot britter now so hopefully it will recover if it was do to the light being old.

Here is a better picture.

hes feeding the same as i did. about half a mysis cube every other day.

i think i need to change out the light which im going to have him do today. As for the feeding ill check with him but I told him to keep it the same. mysis shrimp every other day. I never spot fed the brain coral becuase the clowns were to quick to get the food. Ive had it for around 8 months with no problems.
