Just booted up my new 200 and on day 4 of the cycle I decided to text more than ammonia nitrite and salinity.
DKH is at .9
Magnesium and Calcium are all completely off the rails as well. The company I had set the tank up and plumb it brought in 240 gallons of RO water and we mixed the salt in the tank.
The salt mixed salinity to spec per norms. But that was it!
What should I do?
50% water change and then just slowly get it back to normal ranges thru water changes or just drain it and start over?
I’m going to be switching to instant ocean salt.
