Hey R2R. My new tanks alk is at around 6, cal 420, salinity 1.025, and ph is 8.4.
I currently dose 10 tsp of kalk in the 5g buck via ato.
Tank is being cycled for about 8 months and currently hosting 2 fish and a dozen of lps.
According to brs, i need sodium bicarbinate to raise alk without raising ph. However, with the holiday season i dont know how long its going to take for brs to ship it here.
However, i got soda ash on hand but brs say that will raise ph as well.
Should i use soda ash or just wait? Tank is doing ok so far since its all lps.
