Wish I had found this series when I set my tank up a couple months ago. What are you thoughts on Macroalgae to help with nitrate and phosphate buildup

Love the videos. When should I start testing for PH and Alkalinity?

What part of the Salifert test kits expire? I noticed you sell expired kits at a discount but also reccomend not using them and to throw them away. Can you explain this a little better. Thanks

[xidvzue]

Is there an aquarium log app that you recommend?
