All my parameters are bang on:
ca- 435
alk -8
Mag -1380
Sg -1.026
PH - 8.1 - 8.45
etc.
That is why it was so hard to figure out.
It's been a real head ache and very costly and has set my reef back big time. At least I now know the problem. I should have known better than to by cheap carbon. I'm hoping things recover quickly.
