I’m currently dosing 3200ml of Kalk into my system it’s a 125g tank 55g sump I think 3300-3400 is my evaporation daily. Anyway my ph tops out at 8.3 mid day and drops to 8.15. Im dosing 48 times a day through a hydros x10 that’s the max I can set it for. Is there anything else I can try to vet ph up and stable
 
That pH looks just fine to me. There are other things one can do, but unless you are in a viral growth rate contest, I would not bother. :)
 
Most people dream of having that ph value. You can throw in a C02 scrubber on your skimmer air intake line to boost it marginally. But honestly you don't even need it with those numbers.

I agree.
