A few months ago I OD'd calcium in my 90, DKH plummeted and after a fight, finally got everything hot, straight and normal. Ca dropped from way over 500 to 420, stabilized for a couple weeks, then fell off like nobodies business.
I've been dosing Brightwell Calcion P at DOUBLE</em> the stock mix ratio and volume, and can't get it to go above 350. (10 tsp per 8oz water, dosing 120 ml daily)
Mag tests good, little on the low end, Strontium tests good, dKH 11, PH 8.3, amm 0, trates and trites 0, salinity 1.023 with a SG of 32 (I believe.. brain dead ATM.)
Using all Salifert tests, and even cross checked my CA test with a new kit.
I have a lot of frags, nothing I would call large or really respectable in this tank. I'm at a loss as to what's causing my calcium lowness, and inability to raise it.
I'm ordering a calcium reactor from BRS, and two part as well for my other tanks, waiting on a couple others local to me to chime in their orders before pulling the trigger.
Is there anything I'm overlooking? I do have growth, but wow.. that's a lotta CA additive. More than I think I should be using..
