The salifert issue was with the kH test kits.
Even with adding ca and alk supplements, depending on corraline growth and how many lps and sps you have, you can easily use 2.8 dKh and 20 ppm of calcium PER DAY! As the levels decrease, calcification will slow down or you would have 0 dKh per day after 3 days. I'm not sure how much supplements you were adding over that week but you might be surprised at what your tank can consume. Your original numbers on 12/28 come in real close to what IO mixes at 1.026.
