      Chemistry calculator

      I don't recall seeing anything like this sticky'd anywhere on here, but this is the calculator I have been using when I need to make any adjustments.
      I like that not only does it calculate for you, but it also gives options, and lists potential side affects of each option.
      Thought this might help some people here.

      You know one of my biggest difficulties? And this is dumb, for real.

      I have trouble guesstimating how much water actually is in my tank. After water displacement from sand and rocks, extra water for the skimmer and refugium added,
      I really can't tell how much water is in the dang tank!

      +1 ..I have so much rock..in my 60 gl. that if I do a wc down about 30% I only remove 12 gallons! So I have been dosing for the estimate of 50 gallons to include my 15 gl. sump :/

      I'm just usually doing all the math as if it were a 55-60gal, counting the fuge. Because when I do a 10-15 gal water change it does look like about 20% of my water.

      Also I'd figure that for dosing it's better to underestimate than to dose to much.
