Let me know if this isn't the appropriate forum for this topic...
I have a new 40 gallon breeder. I added the sea salt to DI water 2-3 weeks ago and I added 47 lbs of live rock last Saturday.
Since then I noticed 1 large Aiptasia and two small ones. I hit them with <1 ml of 1 N NaOH (caustic soda, lye, etc.) each. It appears to do the job killing them (I'll continue watching).
My question... Should I be concerned about my alkalinity and pH yet?
Any other advice?
