I think I'm going to start mixing up Kalkwasser in my ATO. Tested twice today, but not sure what's going on here.
Alk dropped to ~6.3 dkh, Mg dropped to ~1284, but my Ca is holding steady at 460. Tank is fallow. Water change is ~8% weekly (5 gallons) on Sundays. I'm running IO Reef Crystals on RODI testing at 0 TDS.
pH: 8.1
Temp: 78
sg: 1.024
Nitrate: ~0
Alk: 6.3
Ca: 460
Mg: 1284
Last week's values:
pH: 8.1
sg: 1.024
Nitrate: <5ppm
Alk: 7.2
Ca: 460
Mg: 1524
Stock:
LPS: 3 head torch, two 1" plate corals
SPS: Tiny Monti frag (1" square) and a 5x2" Monti Cap.
Softies: Leather is pretty good size now, handful of mushrooms and zoas (nothing huge) and a pretty rapidly growing GSP frag.
CUC: about two dozen hermits, two large turbos, two emeralds, and a tank full of pods.
Thoughts?
