I did a 25% water change last night (Oceanic) and some of my numbers went through the roof.
Ca= +500 (color didn't change)
dKH = 13.4
Mg = more than 1500 (color barely began to change)
Sg = 1.025
Ph = 8.3
trites = .1
trates = 25
Amm = 0
phosphates = 0
Is this the salt mix? I have used this from the beginning and it seemed alright. However, this was my first use of Salifert tests for Ca, mg, and alk. Numbers were always fine with red sea tests.
I have no livestock other than snails and hermits, which are doing fine.
