So I have been testing my water Everyday and my parameters are
420 Calcium
8.5 to 9.3 Kh
1200 Magnesium
Started adding Kent’s magnesium for 3 days and can not get it to Raise. Any Advice ? Would be much appreciated have a Kung Pow Monti on the way and would like it to be around 1300. Also...
Hi Friends,
Here are my current parameters:
Salinity – 1.025
ORP – 440
PH – 8
Temp – 76
Alkalinity – 13.7
Calcium – 345
Magnesium - 1100
Ammonia/Nitrates/Nitrites = 0
Salt - CoraLife = Calcium (400), Magnesium (1150)
Do I need to be concerned about my alkalinity being so high?
Should I be...
