Ive been vinegar dosing for 2 months, raising it 4mLs per week. I’m up to 26mLs per day now with it just getting bumped up by 4 last night. I came home today and the edge of my monti cap is either STNing or RTNing, I’ll guess I’ll find out in the morning. With my nitrates still so high, is it possible that the bump up with vinegar is causing this? I know you want to keep alk at 7ish when carbon dosing but my No3 is still high enough that it shouldn’t cause burnt tips/ends. My acros all look fine. Just the edge of this cap is the problem. No predators so we can rule that out.
Thoughts? Nothing has been changed and my ICP tests are normal. This caps been in my tank two years.
