    Rusty door hinges

    Bros, give you all a hassle free method... apply Vaseline onto it. $2.35 bottle from Guardian/ NTUC... and don't kiasu on the amount applied. Just scoop one big glug of it and apply it generously all over the hinge... redo this method whenever you feel you have wet the hinge and reapply.. very clean very hassle free... plus moisturize your fingers too :)


    I can try shoot a picture of my hinges tonight... minimal rusting... rusting was due to previous accidents of failed pipes etc... and my cabinet has been with me >1 year...

    I'm trying to bring it back closer to NSW levels (7-8 dKH).

    No hard evidence but i had a massive coral blistering event several months back where I lost a lot of colonies. That was when the conditions were (9+ dKH) + increased bacteria dosing. Just trying to avoid those similar conditions.

    I also having the same issue when the dkh goes up to 8. Has lowered back to 7.7 and seems to be doing better for the sps colonies.

    Tried researching the bubbling and blistering issues on SPS on WWW - Nothing concrete found because everyone is pointing to different directions. So can only pray and wait and trial and error... In one way or another I felt its more to do with carbon dosing ie. bacteria than anything else.
