I’m getting frustrated with keeping alkalinity stable without daily testing and adjustment. And when things do get to the point where they are stable as soon as I stop daily testing something goes out of whack and I end up with an alk swing. I’m using two part on dosers. A few months back phosphates spiked High, and alk consumption dropped driving my alkalinity way up. I stopped dosing for a couple days to let it naturally come down but birds nest and montis where not happy. I got it back stabilized and corals bounced back and where looking good. Then the outside temp went up, House AC started kicking on, and my PH dropped. Again alk consumption dropped and drive my levels high. I caught it because I was daily testing and adjust as required with no issue. Then decided to crack a window and my PH went back up and all dropped lol
All the new toys are neat and all but $1000 plus trying to keep reagents stocked is just not doable. So what’s the secret before all the toys? I would think even with calcium reactor your going to have to fight adjustments from outside factors.
