Hey everyone,
I set up my tank using Tropic Marin pro reef salt but have noticed my alkalinity is always very low, it tested 6.4 last night. I have virtually no coral only a couple zoa frags. I was thinking about switching to Red Sea blue bucket as I believe the levels are closer to what I would like to keep my tank at. I have 2 questions... first, would you make the switch and call it a day or stick to the TM pro and just add 2 part? And second, what could cause alk to be so low with almost no coral. TM usually measures at 7.7 when I test during water changes?
Thanks everyone.
