Hello All,
I have a 90 reef (20 gal sump). I seem to be having a problem with getting my Alk and Cal numbers to the appropriate levels. I've tested both with Salifert kits and the readings are as follows:
Alk= KH 16.0, Alk 5.71
Cal= 300
I've been dosing B-ionic for the past month or so (40ml each per day). Please provide suggestions on bringing my readings to the correct levels as well as maintaing them.
RANDY,
I've ordered a Magnesium kit and Tech M by Kent just in case this is my problem. I'm also looking into Turbo Cal by kent to bring up the calcium level and then continue the use of B-ionic to help maintain the levels. Let me know if this makes any sense to anyone out there.
All replys are welcomed.
Thanks
Thanks in advance.
