This is the thread I found it on. You can find the original study publication link there as well.

Interesting, so how would summarize the lesson for us reefers?

Very good. Let's test mag and alk tomorrow.
At the moment your coral load is low so we cannot expect big alk consumption. The decrease in the alk is happening from the rowaphos and the water change mainly.
If mag stays low we will dose bit mag.
Mag went from 1035 to 1095
Cal went from 375 to 400
Alk went from 11 to 10.9

Which do you feel is harder to care for, sps or lps? I've researched that question and discovered much debate. Really my only end goal is to have a beautiful coral tank.

I saw this and Will do a write up, this will need some explanation that might be useful to you now and in the future.
