    Not sure what my calc is now, but I'm afraid it's in the 500s now. I'm going to get my mag tested at the end of the week.

    Try to get it down as it can cause nutrient uptake issues by blocking the cells' ability to take them in.

    I was taking classes and chose not to work. I didn't have any money to spend on the tank, so I just kept the lights off.

    Well I think it's starting to take off now. There are small patches of it popping out everywhere on my glass.
