imma send a test out for aquabiomics just to verify what im up against. One of my blue tangs is clearly not super happy, but still eatting and harassing the other fish.
Could just be blue tang things. I guess i'll find out. Less depressing news.
I finally got around to messing with my water mix station.
step one - mount my new 100g tank. I made sure it didn't block the attic access.
Step two - with a clean scalpel. Make a clean cut in the middle of the tank so you can both the foot and mouth.
Now I have 2 smaller tanks I can mount.
Not a ton of space by the door, but we rarely enter thru the garage.
The board I mounted is a bit crooked but so is my life so I just gotta deal with it.
So I learned its a good idea to mount a valve on this side of the wall as well.
Lets just say some comical hilarity ensued multiple times when I tried to turn on the system. The RO system leaked like crazy from one side. I guess it got tussled on the way home. I took apart the needle valve and manifolds and put a fresh wrapping of teflon tape. Seemed to slowed the leak to a very very slow drop. About a drip every 30 - 40 secs. I'll take the solenoids off and retape those next.
