Okay, So I'm trying to keep my pH between 7.8 and 8.0. At night I am getting swings from 7.4 to 7.9. However, I am doing starting to do 2 part dosing to keep the all/mag/cal all up. I am testing all three everynight for the last week to measure what my tank is actually consuming to setup my dosing pumps. I am getting the following results:
Alk 7 dKh
Cal 500
Mag 1320
So I add the necessary alk 2 part per the BRS calculator in two parts at night and in the am. However I am still reading the same. I'm trying to understand Randy's article about what is actually consuming the alkalinity but I don't understand. I have the following in my tank:
Fire and Ice Zoas
GSP
Walking Anthelia
Torch
Tiger Paws Zoas?
Nothing is larger than a golf ball or a dime. So I don't see how it could be consuming that much without a dip in the other numbers as well.
HELP?
