Does anyone know what could possibly be going on with this guy?
I am having some issues keeping my ph and alk stable. Ph is staying around 7.8 to 8 and the total alk is staying pretty steady at 4
The rundown
Ph 7.8 to 8
Alk 4
Mag 1200
Salinity 1.025
Calcium 480
Ammonia 0
Nitrate/nitrites 0
Everything else is looking good.
I've been using baking soda (cooked an hour at 350 and mixed 1/2 cup to 12 cups of water) to try and raise my alk level so far it's not really helping. Try to dose 20 mil a day 10 in the morning and 10 at night. Maybe I should up that?
I'm going to try a water change to see if that helps the bubble coral any.
