Hi.
Thanks for your time!
I've been battling low alk for about two weeks.
I've increased the frequency of my pickling lime drip, but I haven't seen the stabilization or an insrease of my alk as a result. I have seen a climb in my ph. Please refer to .This Post (http://archive.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=387888) for more history
I came across a post that talks about adding baking soda to raise alk? Should I pursue this instead of my pickling lime? Is it to soon?
Current Numbers (via salifert):
Calcium 440
Alk: 6.8
PH: ~8.2
I was dripping 1 quart of saturated di h2o 1x per week, I went to twice a week, with a third dose much closer to the last.
I have a xenia, that's not looking so happy today
