This is all from the days when everyone insisted on higher alk. The salt companies haven't responded well to natural sea water conditions. Red Sea anyone???That is the only thing I hate about IO. Both are elevated in ALK. I have to drop the ALK. The Seachem acid buffer works quite well. Just as good as acid. You just have to run an air-stone for a few hours to get the pH back up or just do the water change the next day.
