i took my water to get tested at the shop, hoping my live rock tank would be ready for fish. Shop keeper said my alkalinity was SUPER low. (4?) She sold me KH buffer to dose daily and a test kit.
The dosing seems to be working well but I would like to know how this happened.
The only change I made to my tank was the addition of an Aquaclear HOB filter and wasnt aware that I shouldnt put in the included filter media. The filter was running with the foam, carbon and biomax for about a week. Could this be the cause?
Thanks!
