10G system. I have been dosing 2 part for some time but wanted to try out AFR. Initially saw that I needed around 6ml/day of AFR to maintain ALK levels but this was also driving up my CA. Dialed it back to 3ml/day AFR and added 6ml of my ALK solution (BRS soda ash). Wondering if it makes sense to use baking soda instead to avoid the PH spike. Haven't dosed baking soda so I would need to figure out dosing. With the 3ml/day AFR alone the ALK drops 13ppm/day.
Also, if I were mixing the AFR myself (bought a bottle of the premixed to start) could I change the components to account for the additional ALK needed?
