Hello, all
I have been on the journey of establishing my tank, it is around 8 months old now. I have it stocked with acans, mushrooms, leather tree, bowerbanki, zoas and a ricordea. My parameters, as a newer tank, have been fluctuating as expected. My corals have now started becoming happy and using alk, calcium, magnesium. I have chose Tropic Marin’s All For Reef simply for the simplicity of one dosing pump.
I have not yet dosed alk because I was fighting high alk for a while (peaked at 14.3) but since then, my alk has dropped to a low of 8.3dkh. I would prefer my alk to stay at the 8.5-8.6dkh range. I know this product has an alk supplement— I dosed 6ml at 8.3dkh (40 gallon tank) and my alk jumped to 8.9DKH. I was wondering if I should wait for my alk to drop even more before I dose again so I can slowly work up the alk to my desired, then keep and monitor that dose amount. What would be the best suggestion or course of action?
