SuncrestReef Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 My wife & I spent a nice weekend in Manzanita. As promised in a recent thread, I brought home a sample of seawater to test the parameters. This sample was taken in about 1 foot deep shore break, and not near any streams or sewage runoff. Here's what I found: Salinity: 1.024 Alkalinity: 6.8 dKH Calcium: 300 ppm Nitrate: 0 ppm Phosphate: 0.01 ppm I also shot some video of this cool little barnacle colony in a small tide pool. It's so fun to see them in action: Lastly, if you're ever in Manzanita and like cocktails and/or scotch & bourbon, check out MacGregor's Whiskey Bar on Laneda St. It's a tiny place, but fun and has a good collection to choose from! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
