Militant Jurist Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 In their dead state, the fish and corals will achieve a godlike state. Start praying to your new tank-saints so that they will make your water wetter. Observe the power of the seamen and women! You shall respect their author-a-tie! Link to comment

Militant Jurist Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 There is something wrong when the wetness and the kitty are not together. The wetness StevieT is searching for would have the kitty being drenched. Link to comment

Militant Jurist Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 That is one common variant, as well as the kind induced by ethanol. A less common variant, but a good one nonetheless, is the aggressive species, in which the tank's wetness is induced by the ferocity. That variant is a personal favorite. Link to comment
PBUEHH Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 maybe you need to 'spice things up' with your tank. Most people take Bio Balls out at the begining of the relationship. Steve, maybe you could, 'add a little surface area' and that would start your tank to get wet, then maybe mix the bio balls with live rock rubble to really shake things up! Im thinking verity here so maybe if you have lir rock thats battery opperated with multiple setting at that has at least 20 watts per gallon should really get your tank watter wetter. Link to comment

Militant Jurist Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 I saw an ad for KY brand Reef Salt today at the LFS. That would probably be a quick fix! Link to comment

vangvace Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 When was the last time you showed your tank a good time? Brought home some flowers? Told it that you care? Link to comment
ace32605 Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Honestly, I hope my water isn't wet right now. I haven't been home in months. If it is wet, then I have probs. Link to comment
StevieT Posted October 23, 2008 Author Share Posted October 23, 2008 When was the last time you showed your tank a good time? Brought home some flowers? Told it that you care? I gave it some c-ballance yesterday, isn't that enough?! And I cleaned up its stand, gosh who knew it was so needy, dumb girls Link to comment
MitchReef Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 There are many different types of products developed not only for agriculture but many other industries that need to get the most out of their water's wetting abilities, that will break down the surface tension and make the water "wetter". Extenders Wetting agents Reducing surface tension...I think washing detergent does this like Tide. .... and ask them to come up with a reef safe water wetter. I know this post was a few days ago, but I missed it then.... Is this individual really suggesting the use of wetting agents, extenders and reducing tension with a slippery agent to be the secrets of getting it wet? Just wondering.....Our tank is plenty wet, it's just the kitty with which we are having problems with reduced wetness.... Link to comment
Ringneck Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I sprinkle Chemi Pure Elite in clams and it seems to help with the wetness Link to comment
phishroom Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 maybe my skimmer is sucking up all the moisture out of the water What we can be certain of is that wetness/moisture levels are directly proportional to DHMO concentration. Most people don't realize just how much DHMO a skimmer is capable of pulling out. You just need to make sure that whatever it pulls out goes back in immediately. This is how a skimmer works: it pulls it out, then puts it back in, pulls it out, then puts it in, pulls it out, puts it in, ad infinitum. If you're not putting it back in, wetness will disappear. I'm certain that a DHMO level imbalance might be accelerated by your skimmer. Adjust dosing accordingly, and make sure your skimmer is filling its reservoir properly. It should be wet and salty.
