@jpm@aus.social nah, the water chemistry is ok (I test every few days with strips), it's just not keeping on top of particulate matter, which is always a problem with river fish. They produce a lot of shit, and it's very very fine.
Marine has other expenses that we won't get into, so it all balances out 😂
Protein skimmers, dosing setups, and just those damn lights!
At least you don't have to worry as much about "ammonia spikes" with marine

And lol yeah metal-halide lights back in the day, looked beautiful but were so damn power-hungry.
