![]() I suppose you're not dosing anything yet? What salt are you using?
I remember my tank spiked up to 18+ dKH a couple years back, and some of the corals were stressed, but a couple water changes brought it down. |

![]() Hmmm, ya if you haven't dosed any calcium or magnesium to make up for the low readings of the IO, I would do that, and see how it the alkalinity is after that. Or is this going to be a FOWLR?
