    I use API for ammonia and nitrite as well. All you really need to know is if it is detectable and API can get you that.

    Exciting waiting for new equipment. I usually check the shipment tracking hourly if i am using some restraint.

    Tank is looking great!

    sigh,yep I bought some hermit crabs and they have been working on it maybe need a few more I don't like to go too crazy plus I'm going to try something I heard. Something having to do with turning out the lights and for a few days and running a skimmer during the lights out period and see if that works
