Hello,
I've been battling dinos for a while and started vinegar dosing two weeks ago. My calcium level has since dropped from 450 to 350, even after doubling daily calcium dosing schedule, and it continues to drop. Just wanted to ask if anyone knew if this was expected with vinegar dosing, or another symptom I should investigate. I'm using a trident and testing Alk/Cal/Mag twice daily.
Thanks!
 
That does not sound likely to be accurate unless there a dosing pump problem. Alk consumption and dosing would have to go way up.
 
Thank you for your response! The issue turned out to be a Trident calibration problem. Its lost calibration twice since my original post.
