I did a 15% water change yesterday. I am switching over from Red Sea Salt to Red Sea Coral Pro. I am in my second week of switching over and did a 3/5 RS Coral Pro to 2/5 RS Salt. My alkalinity when I tested this morning was about 7.5-8 (I use API tests) I am curious if I should raise my alk. I know it is only slightly low but I switched to RS Coral Pro because the Cal and Alk were hovering in the low range (360-380cal/8-9alk).
I have a 69gal Res Sea Max
Corals:
3 Acan (1 that was just decimated by a Peppermint Shrimp)
4 Zoa Frags
2 Mushrooms
2 Montipora
1 Candy Cane
1 GSP
Fish:
2 Clowns
3 PJ Cardinals
1 Royal Gramma
1 Lawnmower Blenny
1 Watchman Goby
2 Pistol Shrimp (I think)
5 Hermit Crabs
7 Snails (various)
2 Peppermint Shrimp (AKA Acan Killers)
My parameters are:
Ammonia 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 2
Phosphate 0
Calcium 400
Alk 7.5-8
Salinity 1.0259
PH 8.2
Thoughts?
