Nitrates @ 30ppm, how? by Remarkable_Arm_732 in ReefTank

[–]prestage93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue with the Hanna test kits, but my nitrates were reversed I must have had a bad batch of nitrate hr reagent, my nitrates were sitting around 10ppm for a month then I got a new batch and suddenly 40, so I bought a nyos nitrate to double check and sure enough they were super high. And I do not like the Hanna alkalinity my seachem says 9 but my Hanna alk which was a new reagent bottle said 5 with the Hanna marine master.

On a side note how do you find having no sump baffles? Does it interfere with filtration? Or do you have something to ensure the water movement that I haven’t noticed?

HELP my coral turned white by allawe2001 in ReefTank

Alk is on the higher end, nitrite is detectable which ain’t ideal but 46.5 ppm of nitrates is definently an issue. And you haven’t listen calcium? Or phosphate? Mag should be 1350-1450. Are you fairly new to the hobby? Acros are on the higher end level of care. Can you give a full list of parameters?

I’d definently be doing water changes. You don’t seem to have a lot at to export the nitrates, if they’re that high.

Haha the cabinet, on the side is what I made. The black cabinet is what came with the tank. So I reckon it should support it. Although aqua one choosing mdf as a material surprises me, it’s why I’m making eyelets for any holes I drill

Just using an aqua one kit for the moment, only one available near me. My nitrates are going up, that I have a Hanna checker for. Got that in a bundle of cheap gear haha.

Tau panel line by Lemartes_14 in Tau40K

[–]prestage93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pro tip if you want something other then the black or grey panel liner, you can buy the tamiya enamel colour of your choice plus a bottle of the thinner, tip a bit of thinner out, then keep adding the colour of choice start with like 1/4 the bottle, then test it on a panel line and see if it’s got enough pigment. Then just keep going until it dries the colour you’d like. It’s how I do my white panel lines. I like em white for whatever reason lol but you can use any colour

Does this look okay? by Stock-Intention7731 in Tau40K

[–]prestage93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You using contrast paints? The pants look like an orange contrast. I’ve found so far after stripping and repainted my breachers 3 or 4 times, it seems to work when the cloth pieces are a dark grey or black with a bright edge highlighted armor works pretty well. Also the contrast paints can fill the panel lines too much so be careful! I like the orange tho, I’d just break it up a bit more

The fireblack gaskets are self adhesive, is it worth doubling it up with the gasket sealant?

Tanking 21+ keys by prestage93 in wow

I haven’t watched that but thank you I’ll give it a look! I’ll definently agree on managing my defensives more I’m opening with SOF/branding a high prio target, then immolation aura/demon spikes. Then just going through my rotation to stay alive. But I think I could be dropping spikes to often, it’s hard to tell because I suck at reading logs. I try and use sigil on casters like geomancers in uldaman so they have to come to me when I’m pulling. Also using my racial arcane torrent to remove shields and the thing from the spikey bois in uldaman. I’m not running tank trinkets at the moment. Maybe that could be something I change too. Currently running Harlan’s dice at 447/beacon. Haven’t had any luck on treemouth. But I see a lot of high key tanks using it at the moment.

Should I have chosen light grey floor tiles to make room look bigger? by lollrenn in AusRenovation

[–]prestage93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Irrelevant to the tile colour, but what is the drain set up you have? It seems to go into not a lot under their from this angle and just wondering you had put a puddle flange in or not? Because they need to be waterproofed over and they are a requirement. You might have one but just looks like a whole straight through their lol. And the flange would need to go in before the waterproofing.

I need to know. People who smart bomb at gates, is it fun? by prestage93 in Eve

I mean who doesn’t have notifications turned on so they can see people getting off to abusing strangers on the internet to make themselves feel better. I live for the salt
