hey everyone. we got a pinpoint ph monitor today and i think we need some calibration fluid or something

does anyone help one, or have a kind of "diy" calibration method?

thanks!

also, we got a sump and i need to have someone tell me how to get the siphon started with a HOB overflow. i kind of missed that part (we bought a bunch of stuff used and he was showing/telling us but i kind of missed some of it)

thanks! you are all wonderful :-D

also, does anyone in waterloo/ cf want to hang out sometime? i am usually pretty bored during the day...

toodles!

I probably can dig up some packets depending on how long you want to wait, otherwise I think they're only $1/each on F&S.

that would be amazing! are you staying in waterloo/cf or are you really in jesup?

just curious because of the going to uni, i dont know how long of a drive that is.

i can wait for awhile, no biggie.. id just rather not order something till i need more stuff/....have money.

are you the person who was next to jason and jeremys table? (sorry, alot of people to remember for one day)

to get the syphon going you just need a short chunk of airline stick it in the u tube all the way at the top put the tube back in the overflow and suck the air out. It will make kinda a toilet flush sound and start working. You'll also have to have water in the compartments on both sides of the u tube before you start also.
