So, I remember reading somewhere that Alk, PH, Mg and Ca are related and they all need to be in sync with each other, but I can't find the article. I've been dosing Kent Marine Ca and Keen Reef's Mg supplement daily at the recommended dose and my Ca hovers at 340 with my Mg at 1000. Alk is 4 meq/L, PH is 8.1. Alk/PH is from Seachem test kit, Ca and Mg are from Elos. Should I stay the course? My clam is open and brightly colored, the 2 SPS I have have good long PE, softies all look good and are fully inflated.
1. Are lower than NSW conditions just as good as NSW conditions, or would I get better growth if I raised my levels.
2. Is the fact that my PH is a little low the contributing factor to why I can't get my Ca/Mg to go any higher?
3. Does a Ca supplement go bad after say 2 years?
4. Do you have any links that would be helpful for me to learn more about these interactions?
Thanks!!
