Hi I did a 80L water change on 300 L tank a couple of days ago as my Duncan's are dying and the alk then was a low 5 dKH and calcium 360. I tested it today and the alk is still the same but the calcium has dropped to 300? Nitrates are 0 , PH 7.8. My tank has always maintained at 360 calcium, PH 7.8 - 8, alk 10-11 dKH and phosphate 0-0.25. I admit I haven't tested since around Feb as everything was stable ( although difficult to get PH up). I added reef builder this morning so that addresses PH and alk. Can I add the calcium supplement later today as well and how often can I add these safely? I have Red Sea NO3/PO4 to reduce the phosphates and am reading up on the manual at the moment. Just to add, I have changed the LFS where I buy natural SW as the other shop caught fire. My params have gone down since- co incidence or not?
