Lol of course, I forget to post the perms

Does any one else have their test tubes spray them? Ever single test I lost water from that and got it all over my hand.

dont shake it that hard and it wont leak, how are your nitrates 3? most kits test in increments of 5
 
You have to shake it pretty hard. I do these tests all day. Shake the cap before you put it on and it wont spray. Id say you dont have enough flow probably. Is your filter the only thing you have creating flow?
 
it was inbetween 0-5, so it seemed around 2.5-3. Its rated for a 55, and frogspawns don't really like flow.
 
Have you been adding iodine? Other than your hardness or calicium n that not much else I can think of. What kinda lighting do you have?
 
Frogspawn needs some flow. A moderate flow in the tank will help stimulate the coral. though there could be other factors going on here with the water conditions.
 
yes, so I have lo- moderate flow i believe just by watching food and bubbles in my tank, Any suggestions? Now one of the heads has skeleton poking through the top it is so squished in. All of my zoas are doing great, but not the frogspawn....
 
My frogspawn likes the flow, when I take my circulation pump out to clean it my frogspawn starts closing up. Try more flow, I only have moderate flow though

Hey the flow made them all open!!!!!
Got the calcium done
Calcium: 500-525 (high, why?) I don't dose calcium or anything. I use the oceanic sea salt though and that has calcium....
Kh:9-10 I am thinking 10 though, but it was hard to tell
Ph: 8.5, I'm not totally sure about the accuracy of this one because I was using the sera test kit but an API test tube. So it could be from 8.2-9 :). Since in its side it looked about 8.3 and from the top it looked 8.8.
