Day 4 - Sunday July 2nd

Around 7pm

Little to report

The skimmer is still producing a lot of foam.

More very small translucent tubes poping from the Live Rock.

Temperature has reached 80F/27C, which is obviously too high... The weather was not so hot in Seattle today. it is actually NEVER really hot here, the city is better known for its endless rainy days and gray skies. I am currently plugging the extra cooling fan, and I am not so happy with that because this will propably mean a daily top-off with FW... Not good for busy people.

The milky appearance of the water is gone.

No microbubbles. (knocking on wood)

The RedSea Starter Kit includes a complete testing kit and I will "test the waters" tommorow night.

Thanks all for your comments.

Finally... I do not agree at all with the idea of removing the splash covers on the cables, timer and plugs: it is a nice safety feature of the RSM. Just take 5 or 10 minutes to flex the cables and you're done. But if you really want to do so, please make sure you have a GFCI device in the loop...
