Dear Mods

[barefooted_elfreda]

the site seems to have slowed up in the past few days. Has anyone else experienced it? I know it’s not due to time of day as this also happens in the middle of the night (sad, I know) . My other web access is very quick as I’m using a cable modem, but just noticed that it can take several minutes sometimes to load the pages….Or it could be NTL:fmad:

Just thought you should know:wink:

Thanks. My Kalwasser top-up is via Tunze Osmolator which runs often and adds pretty small amounts of Kalk at the time (to the sump). Don’t think this can cause any major KH/PH swings, but I can replace kalk with pure water for a few weeks and see it this helps…

Flow – tried moving small xenia rock to different flow areas – not much difference, but seems to be surviving slightly better (but just barely) in extremely high flow areas.

Regarding lighting – yes it’s very different. On the old tank I had 3 x T5, new one has 2 x Kessil 360 LEDs currently running at 60% (started from 30% and increasing gradually). But again, I tried to place different xenia pieces right at the bottom and very close to the top – no difference. Unless it doesn’t like LEDs at all…

Hi,

I too have been having major problems loading pages – sometimes in excess of 5 mins.

My home ISP is NTL cable but at work I use BT ISDN which is just as bad.

Like darren, my other net access is nice & fast so the problem definately seems to lie with the host of ultimatereef.

Hi again,

I just did a traceroute to see where the problem lies – seems to be ultimatereef’s server – see below (apologies for the techie answer!)

If u look at node 24, you will see that it has lost 50% of the packets sent to it

Pete, may be worth speaking to your hosting company

Regards
