Hi @Randy Holmes-Farley
** TO GET TO THE POINT *** HOW CAN I bring down Alk tomorrow? (I bought some time...to do things properly)
Vinegar? Citric Acid? SOmething else, and HOw much of either to bring down alk spike when I know ALk (since right now it's off the charts on my Salifert Test Kit **)
Tomorrow I'll find a way to determine Alk in SPS tank.
A few hours ago, for still unknown Reason, my Dosing Pump overdosed Part A ESV bi-Ionic.
I caught things in time since my PH skyrocketed and my Apex Picked it up.
I had a similar thing happen years ago, and I added Vinegar to bring down alk.
I had no vinegar tonight (1/4 cup in kitchen, so I use that before I decide Plan B)
PLAN B: I removed all the Corals within an hour of the OVerdose and put into a holding tank (frag Tank)
SPS are safe in Same Water Parameters before Overdose in DT (in Frag tank)
Appreciate some advice.
I think I did the best thing possible.
I'll have proof since I left 1 Duplicate Pacman SPS Frag in DT. (Will it get damaged from Spike...We'll see, it may take time)
