Alkalinity

[CAbercrombie]

Testing for ALK is pretty important. Nitrate and phosphate as well.

People who can maintain alk stability tend to do pretty well in this hobby.

Alk is 9.4

Im going to continue all 4 reef have never test alkalinity so idk what it is. Hannah tester will be here today.

OK, you may have to raise or lower (or stop) the AFR dosing. :)

Ok thank you ill follow-up with results once i get test kit.

Hannah reads 168 which is 9.4 i believe tested 3 times same number.

OK, so if it were me, I'd keep the same dose of AFR and measure again in a week.

if you want lower alk, drop the AFR by 25% and measure again in a week.

Don't dose any other alk or calcium supplements.
