I do not quite understand Gh vs KH. I am using Hagen test kits and i find my GH is way off the scale. I do know that GH is total hardness measureing all the salts etc. But isnt this too high.
I was going to add some crushed coral to my sand for buffering but am afraid to now.
GH is at 48 drops or 960 mg/L Caco3 which eguals 48 hardness,2.688 dh,3.36 ClarkH
I had some shells in and dead coral but removed them a week ago and it still raised over the week by 16 drops.
My salinity is beween 1.004 and 1.006 using marine salt.
KH stays steady at 7 or 8 drops = 70-80 mg/L,
Ph is 7.6
ammo=0
Nitites=<.03
Nitrates= 10~20
