Good morning and Merry Christmas / happy holidays family! As a user of ATI Essentials pro 2 part, I've been pleased with it over the years. I've recently started using Trident controlled dosing, and I'm impressed at how it adjusts my dosage based on the Trident test result. I know ALK fluctuations should be kept to a minimum, however with a tank full of growing sps colonies...fluctuations are happening.....im curious what type of ALK fluctuations are users of Calcium reactors that has the Apex Trident see throughout the day?

This was my ALK from 12/24: 12am - 12/25: 12am

High of 7.37 and low of 7.10.... goal is 7.20.

I'm curious if users of Cal Rx are seeing less flux throughout the day?

I see about ` .5 -1 dkh swing between morning and night. I feel like the fewer daily swings you have the easier it is to kill your actors with an unpredicted swing if something happens to your equipment. Just my opinion though.
