I was so proud of finding a local supply of Mrs. Wages the other day. ($1.75 a pound). I set up a kalk drip system. My water seems to keep testing at about 425ppm Cal. and 2.75-3 meq alk. I had been trying to keep the alk around 4.5 meq and calcium around 450 with a two part system. I do not have but a few small sps in my tank, which under VHO survive but grow s-l-o-w. The rest are softies. I drip about a gallon a day as my top-off water.
Should I go back to the two part system? The 2-part seemed easier. Although, I like that my pH is now stable (8.0 night - 8.2 day), but want to be sure my alk is ok.
I'm upgrading to MH next month and want to get this figured out before I start adding more sps.
