Ok...I'm kinda new here but I had good luck with wet water in my 90 reef a few years ago. Ya see the problem here is surface tension. To much and the water dries out. How much is too much? Well you can measure it with a tensionometer, but those things are pricey...even the cheap ones are $9.95 at Walmart. So heres what ya do....Try laying the cat on the surface of the water, if it floats, ya got too much tension.Now to get rid of the tension, try some mood lighting and a nice massage. Get in there and loosen things up. If that doesn't work ,ask your doctor for some Valium. Figure 500 mg per 10 gallons. Throw the Valium in there, get ya a lava lamp, and turn on some Pink Floyd and watch the tension roll away.

 

Heres a pic of my 90 before the Valium

Hope this helps!

Got this email from Woot.com today:

 

 

 

Subject: BREAKING: Economists declare water at least 50 percent wet!

 

Attention, O-man21:

 

Welcome to Woot's first official recession-era newsletter! For the next 12 to 24 months, all citizens are expected to fret over, worry about, or even directly experience the nadir of a consumerist society - OMG! What will we do when we stop buying stuff? Economists now agree that we're headed through a prolonged period of decreased consumer spending (you really need an advanced degree to come up with insights like that). Beyond that, it's anybody guess. Will the only growth sectors in the economy be shoe repair, pipe salvage, and roadside apple sales? Or will we bring on a quick recovery by doing patriotic things like buying stuff we can't afford and spending more money than we make?

 

As a retailer, it'd make sense for us to fall in with the BUY STUFF, AMERICA conga line. But by now, you know that we at Woot never do things the "normal", "sensible", "rational", "intelligent" way. We're not about to follow the herd over a cliff. When we go over a cliff, it's because of our own poor judgment, not someone else's. That's been our credo since about five minutes ago, when we first thought of it. And we've stayed true to it ever since.

 

That's why we're encouraging you and your fellow wooters to save this holiday season. Save your money! Save until you pull a saving muscle. Horde your money until you are literally choking on it. Save until maybe, like, mid-February or so, when the market will be a-glut with great deals for the taking every day. You'll avoid the crowds, take advantage of desperate retailers, and not have to hear "Simply Having A Wonderful Christmas Time" even once.

 

Sure, maybe you'll disappoint some of your loved ones. But if they really love you, they can wait a couple of months, especially if your finances are at stake. Besides, if your so-called loved ones wanted you to set yourself on fire, would you? Of course you wouldn't. And that's the kind of independent thinking that will one day break the mindless conformity of our consumerist holiday ways.

 

But be warned: you'll want to stay far away from Woot.com this week. The breadth and scope of bargains we'll be offering - especially starting Tuesday morning at midnight - will be powerfully tempting. They could even lead you back down the spend-spend-spend path with the rest of the sheep. And that would make us sad enough to cry while we're taking your money.

 

See you in February!

Not to mention all of those around the world who would give anything for some wet water this Christmas season. Think of all of those children around the world who will only have dry water Christmas morning.

I didn't know where to post this so this was the closest thread. I've had a suspicion lately that my water is in fact too wet. Here are the symptoms: fish seem overly slippery and moving too fast, coral looks soggy, sand is sodden and doesn't blow around like it used to, hermits can't get a grip. I stopped using chemipure in hopes of drying up my water, but it seems to be going slowly. Should I do a water change?

Your water is too wet from winning photo contests. The only true way to cure super-wet-water or SWW is immediately halt entering wet looking pictures into the monthly contest.

If I am not mistaken, using the EcoAqualizer will align the ions and make your water wetter.......It has the added benefit of increasing the mileage in your car and curing your arthritus too!
