Hi Randy,
thx for your article about low PH.
After fighting with low PH in my tank i decide to turn my calcium reactor off. The PH in the morning was 7,6 and 8,4 at the end of the day !! The ALk never reach 7KH and was having a lot of job setting the correct flow rate and CO2 injections, calcium reactors its just not for me:mad2: .
I am now using only Bio calcium from Tropic Marin and Kalkwasser at all the replaced water. The KH is now 7 and calcium 400/420 mg all Salifert kits. The PH its still runing low, 7,8 to 8,2 but I have less fluctuations.
I am concerned about the dosage of Bio Calcium. My tank is a 100 gallons packed with SPS corals, but i have to use 10 large dosing cups of Bio calcium daily to keep this values !!
Should i have to worry about any toxic undissolved compunds of this product ?? The major problem of Bio Calcium its realted with higher salinity, but my salinity pinpoint its still running at 49,0 to 50,5 with no great variations. What do you think ??
thx in advance ...
