The Salinity has dropped slowly over the last couple weeks from trading frags, tank water going out with frags and RO water going back in to top off. 

Drove right by TPA today and didn't even think about stopping to get salt, was headed to trade frags. 

Ya, been little lazy lately on WCs. Been focusing on getting my 2part dosing in check. 

Could that be a cause? The other two nems were at a normal Salinity level. 

Think I got it. 

Only has your name. No Location or Avatar. Did you click "Edit My Profile" and "Save Changes" buttons at your profile?

I know there isn't an Avatar, can't figure out how to make a picture small enough on my Chrome Book.

Checked profile and saved any changes I made. I thought I read at one time there were two places that need a location put in.

I'll give it another shot.

Any common reasons why when ever I get a nem they hide in my rocks. They usually start out good and happy but seem to head for the rocks within a week or so. I've lost two in the past and my newest one is starting to hide, don't want to loose another one.

Lighting: 6 bulb T-5 ATI bulbs 8.5" off water level, nem is about 14" deep in tank.

3x Coral Plus

2x Blue Plus

1x Actinic

Water: Could use a WC but perimeters are good

Temp: 78.4

Sal.: 1.021

RedSea test kit

Mag: 1350

Alk: 10.4

Cal: 450

API test kit

PH: 8.3

Pho.: .8

Nitrites, Nitrates, Ammonia: 0

The nem still looks happy with lots of bubbles but why would he be hiding?

Location test..

I cant even see my own location, I've checked my profile and only found one spot for location and it's set.

what kind of fish is that?

What is the purple SPS in the third Pic?

Just cleaned the glass. Check out the wave. Lol

Dang farther then I would want to drive with a barrel hanging out my trunk. Lol.

Location?

I will also be going to D River Wayside - Zone 6 - near Lincoln City. I spent a weekend there about 3 years ago.

Rock will also soak up meds.

Will corals stop growing vertical one they have reached a happy amount of light?

Good to hear.

I'll go first I guess. My family is planning on going to Zone 6 - "D" River Wayside.

Picked one up last night, yay. Your tank looks awesome. Acclimated really well and so far liking his new home, big bubbles already.

Is everyone just gonna post on here where they are planning on going?

Oh ok.

Can you send pictures of the 3G fixture?

Not sure, not familiar with the brand. What size are they? What info do you have on them? Pictures?

I'm interested in the lights, let me do some research first, and the bucket of salt.

Location?

I'm heading to Salem would you like to trade?

Ya, that's actually how I was running them until I got a better setup.
