                Sorry there will be no magroves at the HAS auction.
                Spot86t claimed the last of them.
                Great meeting you Spot.

                He would have continued but at that moment my very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill little four-year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt dust?'

                  nitrates have sky rocketed 40 to 80 ppm. did a 50% last night & a50% tonite. will do a 50% tomorrow and see how it goes. phishphreeks post said it takes about 3 weeks for the mangroves to kick in, winter may not help this progress?

                    I think you will have to keep doing water changes cause the mangroves will not be able to keep up just slow it down.

                    Also the more plant mass the faster/more efficient it will absorb nutrients.

                        nitrates were up because theres been a dead catfish in there for a week. found it this morning. with the plastic on top it was starting to stink! did a water change this morning. wanted to do one tonight but these kids keep coming to my door asking for candy. they are dressed really strange.
