Can someone just give me a hand with how I’m meant to go about this.
Originally my tank ran at
Alk 8.5
Cal 440
Mag 1280
Nitrate 40
PO4 0.1
Problems started when I was using hanna checker every week to monitor how much my tank was using (old reagent started gives off results) and I ended up over dosing. New reagent and salifert confirm I’ve bumped the alkalinity to 11.8. Since then I’ve done 2 water 10% water changes over 2 weeks
My latest results show
Alk 10.3 ( last week was 10.3 too)
Cal 450
Mag 1520
Nitrate 100+
PO4 0.25
now nitrates and phosphates may be over feeding with addition fish I’ve added or that I boiled a rock that had aptasia on it and then threw it in the sump.
how do I fix everything to get it back to where I was lost all my sps that I had left now only softies and lps.
