My Other (Latest) Disaster
Well, what the AEFWs did not get, the ozone overdose did.
I ended up losing almost every acro except for a handful that have been treated and placed in my frag tank.
I bought a new probe and calibrated. I also bought calibration fluid with known ORP values and verified the probe is correctly measuring ORP. I also clean the probe in vinegar every week, but I have not yet started using ozone again. The handful of frags I saved from the worms are wasting away, except for the Greg Hiller frags I got and a few others. So I won't be using ozone in the near future. I can't even get algae to grow on the front of my tank anymore! Never thought I would actually want algae to grow!
I am just going to lay low for 3-6 months without adding anything to my tank (yeah right, like I will be able to restrain myself ) for as long as possible. Until then I am re-aquascapiing, redoing lighting, building a frag QT system, and installing the new generator when the nice weather starts.

On another note....how goes the ozone battle? You get your ORP calibrated?
