Bad High Calcium

Beau is hosting the January Meeting this coming Saturday the 14th at 6PM.  It will be BYOB as well as a snack to share and raffle items are always welcome.  It has been requested that there be “NO SHOES” on the carpet due to it being a whitish color.

He doesn’t have a tank to view but we will have plenty to discuss in hopes that it will get the NEW YEAR off to a good start.  The annual membership fees are due, so now would be a good time to get them in to our Treasurer Stacey Hahn.   Fees are $20 per individual or $25 per family

Attendance was low at the election meeting in November and no votes were taken at December’s meeting so we have decided to take votes for anyone that didn’t get the opportunity in November and will be attending this meeting.  
We will add the votes to November’s ballots and the announcement will be made during the meeting so we can go forward.
NOMINATIONS:
President:  Jim & Nacho
V. President: Ed, Bo & Daniel Leigey
Treasurer: Stacey
Secretary: Carmen & Angie

Let’s hope the New Year brings new members, returning members and new ideas.  The club is always willing to take suggestions to get the most out of the hobby we all enjoy.

Zul,

In the 75 gallon tank we have, I try not to do more than a couple gallon change at a time with fresh water, meaning, not adding more than a couple gallons at one time, wait a couple hours, then add again.  It could be that 5 gallons added to the sump still changed the parameters enough to stress any corals that were close to where the water re-enters the tank.  I've actually seen a "swirl" where the water re-enters our tank when I add top-off water after going away for a few days, and not adding it as regularly as I should (man...am I ever looking forward to getting Rico's 155 and getting the auto-top off system set up!).  Just a thought, but it could be the 5 gallon changes every day that caused the problem due to intial local water parameter disturbances.

My live rock is covered with coraline alge. Is this ok or not? How do I reduce the coraline alge? :?:  :?:

Coraline is good.  Other algae can't grow on top of it...and it's pretty.
