Back from Vacation

Went on vacation. We had a house sitter that is not an experienced Hobbiest. Everything went fine. No casualties and algae issues.  

There was a big storm on July 6. Power went out a couple of times but nothing more than a minute. I was lucky some local hobbiest had power out for up to 14hours.   I had been meaning to get my UPS battery replaced. This is a eye opener so getting that taken care of ASAP. 

This week tank maintenance: 

Siphoned the sandbed into disposable filter sock.  Cleaned all sides of the glass. 


​Test readings: 

Phosphate: .018ppm
Alk: 7.3 dkh
Calcium:  Not tested. 
Magnesium: 1380ppm
