Hello. I’m a bit concerned on my tank’s uptake of Alk and Cal. I’ve added a BRS CO2 scrubber a few months ago and it has increased my Alk and Cal dosing by 3x. I don’t see any precipitating on my glass or walls. I am getting a little bit of sand clumping (not hard and can crush it with my fingers). PH swings from low of 8.10 to a high of about 8.26-8.3:
I am using Red Sea Reef Foundation A, B and C. Here is what my daily dosing looks like (3.612 ppm of Alk and 25.86 ppm of Cal per day). Dose Alk on even hours and Cal on odd hours. Daily dosing split over 24 hrs:
Picture of tank (mostly SPS):
Is this normal or should I be concerned? TIA.
