Dear friends

I currently have a mixed reef aquarium with a preference for SPS.
Actually I use Kalkwasser + magnesium in evaporation water with kalk reactor.

The plan is to supplement with some balling when you reach the limit of your Kalkwasser. Has anyone used ATI Essentials SPS balling along with Kalkwasser?

My question is, according to what I've read, ATI Essentials SPS helps raise the pH. I'm afraid that along with Kalkwasser it might raise the pH too much. Has anyone used it before?

Thank you
 
I’m curious how you dose magnesium? It is not soluble in kalkwasser.

Nothing can raise pH more than kalk alone if you maintain alkalinity at some target value.
