what methods can be used to lower alkalinity
thanks
thanks
I also have this problem. Salifert test kits show Ca at 360, KH at 11.8/4.25. So calcium is low and alkilinity is high. I have also found magnesium to be low (1125 ppm) and am working on bringing it up. BTW... I did a 20 gal water change on the 125 gal tank the day before I tested.
But how did I get here? I have a kalkwasser drip going 24/7 which should be balanced. And I add a 2-part cal/alk additive in equal doses. Is the low magnesium to blame?
Should I stop adding the alk additive although the 2-part should be added equally? Do I need to do bigger water changes? Will it come into line when I raise the mag?
my salt is redsea
