Hi all,
I just switched to All for Reef and am having issues getting dosing down. My tank is a 32g biocube (around 26 or 27g total water volume). when I tested alk this morning it was 7.1 (I aim for 8.5) so my dosing isn't at the right level. I increased the amount I'm dosing over the day, but wanted to bring it up closer to expected level using baking soda. I wanted to bring it up .5. However, the website I used clearly had it way wrong and I overdosed it. The alkalinity is now around 13. Good lord....I'm concerned about the rapid increase not the level as that will drop naturally in a couple of days. But man, I'm guessing there's nothing I can do now to counteract that giant spike in alkalinity?
