Good morning all,
I have somewhat of a "good" thing happening but I don't want it to get to high,
my pH was 8.15 last week and has always been steady at that, and as of last night, it is 8.28 (as of 5:30pm). I have not done anything different and my params are as follows:
Ammonia = 0
Nitrite = 0
Nitrate = 20 (typical 15-24)
Alk = 14.5
Phos = .175 (typical .140 - .190, yea I know its high but everyone is happy)
Calcium = .450
Mag = 1400
pH = 8.28
Salinity = 1.025
temp = 77°
I dose All for reef 13ml daily ( always have ) and calcium 5ml daily

I have had a couple LPS a little smaller than usual but not bad ( blue tip hammers)
so, do I worry about it or just let it ride and watch it?
