ALK swing

[Silence]

So I had an equipment malfunction over night, and my ALK jumped by over 1 DKH.
Is there any way to mitigate the damage on my SPS reef?
Thanks in advance.

Water change to try and get it down.. What level is it at now? 1DKH is a pretty big swing but as long as its still in a safe range the damage shouldnt be terrible. Although acros will be very unhappy

The level is now 10 DKH, it was under 9 DKH yesterday...

Oof, I see lots of acros.. Try to get it down a bit if you can. 10 isn't terrible but I think alk swings are one of the worst things for acros

yep, Tdileo is correct, alk swings are the worst, and unfortunately, rapid upward swings are worse than swings down. I would water change to mitigate it.
