I have a 29 gallon with goniopora/ 5 acans/ montis (about five of them encrusting and plating) and a few stylopora and birds eat frags rest are softies. 2 chalice frags.
I’ve been slowly increasing my dosing and at the last count I did:
32ml of Randy’s solution 1 calcium and alkalinity and 6 ml of magnesium. Per day dosed 4 minutes apart into high flow.
I went from 7.7dkh to 7.3dkh in 24 hours...
Doesn't seem odd to me.
32 mL is 1.55 dKH per day. You were losing another 0.4 dKH, for a total of about 2 dKH per day. Coralline alone in a soft coral tank can do that.
