Hello, Does calcium, alkalinity, magnesium, and pH parameters affect anemone growth?

Hello, My magnesium is at 1395 and calcium 420 and 9.6 dkh. I know that magnesium level is high. Since calcium and alkalinity are attracted to each other to cause calcification and magnesium is to balance out the process of that, can that high of magnesium cause calcification to be slower?

Hello, I am wondering how to raise my pH from 7.8 to 8.1-8.3? Can someone please list the methods to do this with instructions, possibly with links?
