    OMGoodness...
    My old man calls it the 'holocaust tank.' Not a good joke, but appropriate. I have killed too many fish.
    Triton will have my ass on a spear.
    Anyway...
    I have a bucket of water curing right now in my greenhouse. You mean you don't just pour it from the tap, add something, and there you go? Someone should have told me that a while ago.
    I love all the new info.
    My (living) fish thank you.
    I'm making light of it in print, but trust me, I am so serious about this......

    Welcome. What's the idea behind the "curing" of the water?

    fishyfinder...I read on this here site that you should make your salt water 24 hrs in advance, test it, and THEN add it to your tank. Who knew?

    My husband mentioned that someone out there named Annie might be offended. If so, Annie, I apologize. ;D
