My salinity in my tank has been at 1.024 and id like to get it up to 1.026. I think the best way to do this is to put saltwater at 1.026 into my ATO and let it go up over the course of a few days. My fear is that I have a SPS tank and I dont want the ALK to shoot up. Its currently at 8.1 which for me is a bit on the high side i normally like it around 7.5. CAL is at 460 and Mg is at 1425. I currently have just been dosing ALK and after a larger water change than normal my ALK went up to where its at now at 8.1. I dont want to raise it but am wondering if i just quit dosing ALK and add saltwater to my ATO and test daily will i be able to high my goal of 1.026 without and large raise or drop in ALK?
