Nope, although this is a mostly South African forum, we do have international members and visitors. Please keep to English.

Afrikaans is also my first language. So yeah...

Yeah Yeah.
If my old hag English teacher could hear me now, she will spin around in her grave... Well she was old, and my sons are almost out of school. If she is still alive I doubt, I'm sure you will find a broom in her driveway.

Luckily Firefox Spellchecker helps a lot.
 
Without spellcheckers my English would be much better but im so lazy now, on my phone already knows more or less what ill be saying, soooo easy... Need a grammer checker also...

:m12::lol: That is sooo true dude!!!
 
OK buys (and girls, if any lol)

So week 1 is done of maturing. Did the first 25% water change (big thanx to @Ayoob for the RO water), hooked up my new second hand (hehe - again thanx to Ayoob) ATU, and tested my water params...

So here we go
SG: 1.026 - Needs to lower slightly
Ph: 8.4
Kh: 7.5
Nitrate: 5 - Yes I know still way too high
Nitrite: 0.3
Ammonia: 0.2

So there's still some maturing and work to be done before those will be right, good thing I'm taking it slow.

ATU makes life so much easier... I still dont have one, luckly so far my husbandry jobs I do on time and promptly. In the mornings and evenings I top up, I only use around 500ml a day.

Hows the water clarity, milky again?
 
@Jason, yes only slightly, but it's not because of the salt, that was crystal clear after I mixed the water with a really old pump that was on my skimmer years ago.

I cleaned the substrate a bit with a funnel when I removed the water, so it turned up a bit of the white inside it again, but it's almost clear again.

I only have one use for a funnel, drinking games... hahaha

Try getting Special Blend and add once a week, will help with the cycle and your tank will mature faster. Its a bacterial source. Just dont sniff the bottle, might faint...
