As a fertilizer there will never be to low potassium level in a reef tank. Potassium is normally about 400 mg/l in seawater
I totally agree, but why did you wrote the first paragraph, I quoted earlier?No I dont say that. I guess it wont change much of the way algae are living in the tank. But it certainly will change the way corals live. And maybe it will affect fishes too.
I have seen losses in coloring and growth of corals with a potassium level of 320. But the algae grew on as usual. The corals regained their colors in about a week after raising the potassium to 400.
