I have a 32 bio cube— all my numbers where fairly good and holding- one week Kh from about 9-12, mg from 1400-1600, ca- 450-600, my salinity always between1.025-26, mix my own with Red Sea black , changed water on Sunday, about 25- came in monday 21, stopped dosing done my normal water changes, even used premix salt figuring would bring numbers down.. salinity steady1.025- Kh down to 10, mg still about 1600- ca about 500 , and like I said 5 gallon water changes every week- when numbers exploded all my coral started freaking most seem to be back.. was told it was the weird overnight salinity drop, any ideas for a long winded first conversation

Welcome! Glad you joined.

Sorry I don't understand, but seem @Fred2482 does so I'll defer to him.

Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. Like you, I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID)
