Hi Randy, I had done a search on the subject but really did not see any late news so...
I had my water tested by AWT and it came back good except low Mg and K. The Mg was easy enough to correct, however I am trying to figure out how to correct potassium, or if it really needs correcting at all. I don't see any test kits for potassium, the ones that have been brought up in the threads I have read are inaccurate or hard to read.
If dosing K is recommended, then with what? I don't use Zeovit, it seems that for a 600 gallon system that would be quite pricey.
Also, my molybdenum came back as high, now I was dosing small amounts of Kents Strontium/Molybdenum. The Strontium reading was good, but moly was high, so I stopped dosing the product, as the testing stated that high moly can lead to cyano, which I have a little.
Any recommendations regarding potassium and moly would be greatly aprreciated. As always, thank you for your dedication and time to the reefing community!!
