Hi all,
Please help.
Been running reef aquarium for a few months now, overcome serious Nitrate prob, bubble algae, aptasia, slime, etc and come out shinning. Moving on I want to improve things so I can add more SPS/Hard corals, but my KH/ALK and Calcium levels are quite low and I need your advice in increasing them.
Bought new test kits and levels are as follows:
KH 5.8
ALK 2.06
Calcium 320
I've been advised to use Kent Liquid reactor and have been last 4 nights, 2-3 capfuls per night, but levels have not changed.
I am limited to what external option I can have so have to resort to liquid/powder based method.
Has anyone used Liquid Reactor and what do you guys/girls suggest I do without involving expensive equipment I can't house?
many thanks in advance.
