First Real Salt Water Change !!
Hi, just thought I would let you know that we got the courage to do our first real salt water change.
Went down to the beach today and gathered 140 liters of sparkling sea water, took home aerated and heated it and just completed the change. We didn't do our normal 250 liter change because we were worried it might shock the fish and corals so we only used the 140 liters collected.
I am now watching the tank like a hawk, hoping that we haven't killed everything. Will do all water parameters in about an hour or so. I did the whole range of tests just before the change. It will be very interesting to see what impact it has had if any.
Crossing fingers that it works well and we can start doing larger changes in the future lol.
