hello all,
So I am in some need of help. I am trying to get my levels in my tank under control. I have a 125 AGA with a 20 Gallon sump. 3x250 watt 65k sakis with 110 pc acintics, 150 lbs at least of live rock, 6 in dsb, lots of water movement (6 powerheads and return from sump). I have sps and softies and some fish. I also am trying to start my calcium reactor and get all levels happy. Recently I left the country for 2 months and experienced good growth with the sps corals while I was gone ( http://www.reefcentral.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=132987 )
I just tested my alk and it was at 1.71meq/L while I was gone the tank was dosed with sechem reef builder-which is sopposed to raise alk twice a week and calcium once a week.
So what do I need to do to make these levels happy? I have a calcium test kit, but cant find it, when I find it I will test it.
My calcium reactor wont raise the alk right? I am still new to the calcium reactor thing so any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am doing searches for these subjects but would like some specific help.
Thanks,
tren
