My Tank Thread
Randy, I was not sure... I was originally just going to let everything settle down to 8-8.5 before starting. But I haven't done anything to the tank for literally a month since number were so high. I really just wanted to get back to some consistency on this tank. It was just suggested to start dosing again, the minimum dosage for my tank was 15ml so it was the starting point. I was actually thinking it wasn't going to be enough and alk would have continually declined, but it looks like 15ml was dead on if it has stayed here for 3 days. 9 isn't horrible I know reefers at 11 and reefers at 7. The Alkalinity of my salt is 8.8 so that is sort of why I think I might just maintain it here. Thoughts??
9 dKH is perfectly fine. I was just responding to your desire to see alk lower.
