The alkalinity and ph in my tank are both low -- around 7 and about 7.0 - 7.4, respectively. I added an air stone to improve oxygen uptake but that didn't make any difference that I can tell. I recently added some Seahem Marine Buffer to increase both. However, I have read that I should not...
I just got done assembling my structures. I use a whole 10oz. Bottle of the @Bulk Reef Supply extra thick superglue. I did the superglue and baking soda trick to get them to bond. After it set for a few hours I flipped the structures and reinforced each joint and dusted with baking soda again...

I've just noticed some RTN on a tort frag. I haven't had any alk swings since this frag was added and it was in a low light area of the tank
Could it possibly be a pH swing? My tank size is 88gallons and I usually dose my alk "baking soda" 0.6 tsp mixed in warm rodi dosed into sump at night. My...

What i want to do now, is to create 1 gallon with Baking Soda so i can use it with a Doser, and to know how much ML should i add to raise 0.10dKh for example...
