The stupid Jebao doser app has the big fat "ON" button meaning continuously on, and the scheduled dose as a button much smaller. UGH. I digress... got home from working late and turned on my doser because I was below my target (targeting 9.0 dKH), I wasn't even thinking and laid down to get some sleep. Woke up, tank is at 17.7 dKH over 3 hours. I did a 25% water change and it's down to 13.3 dKH, still about 4.3-4.5 dKH higher than I am normally at. Currently waiting for more RO/DI to fill up before I can do another 25% and bring it down again.
All the fish, coral, and inverts seemed to be acting fine; but I know there can some times be a delayed reaction as things don't happen instantly.
Apart from not being a total idiot, is there anything I need to watch out for or anything I should expect to see as far as livestock is concerned?
I have also been battling low nutrients, so I assume once I have the alk back down to a normal level I will need to dose some Sodium Phosphate and Potassium Nitrate (or Ammonium), what are you thoughts on this?
Mostly embarrassed about this whole thing. A real dumb mistake.
