Hello!
So I am new to the hobby, 3 months or so into it. I have an issue with my Alkalinity and my pH. Thay are both stuck at 7.9 and can't get them to go higher.
I have a calcium reactor and a kalkwasser reactor. Both from Geo's Reef.
Tank volume: 500Galons
My most recent readings are as follows:
Alk 7.77
CA 584
Mg 1648
pH 7.98
My kalkwasser is using RO/DI water and has a fixed dosing schedule with the Neptune DOS
Currently we are dosing the lime water as follows:
5000 ml at 2-4am
1000 ml at 5-6am
1000 ml at 7-8am
5000 ml at 10-12pm
5000 ml at 2-4pm
1000 ml at 5-6pm
1000ml at 7-8pm
5000ml at 10-Midnight
Thats 24 Liters of Lime Water going in the tank! And Alkalinity is not rising!!!
I obviously started at lower levels but seeing how much I'm pumping in I don't know what else to do!
I am using Seachem Reef Kalkwasser that I bought from Amazon.
Any insight would be much appreciated!!
