I'm so sorry, I can't even begin to think of an answer to the question in the text of your message. I'm still busy laughing at the post title!

Welcome to Reefs.Org!
Could use a little info on water paramaters; ammonia, nitrate,nitrite, SG, pH, water temp, calcium. If you are monitoring these items, I see no need to go through the expense of sending your water to some sort of lab. If you are using tap or well water, stop. RO water is the only way to go. What about lighting? I find my mushrooms do best slightly under an overhang, so that they are getting more indirect than direct lighting. That is really all I can say at this point, with the limited info given.

BTW, if you ever see what gets collected in the skimmate, please don't "taste" your water.

My opinion does not reflect official positions of RDO. If you can read this line, you probably has nothing better to do, and you need to get a life too!

Send me a 5th full, if I find your reef water satisfactory, I'll order a gallon a month. Ho ho ho ha ha. Thank God for misspailing. Whoo hooo
This movie has changed my whole life, if I could only find the remote to rewind it!
