Aquarium Advice Freak
Since my coral started looking weak i was suggested to test my alkalinity.
I purchased a Seachem PH & Alkalinity test. It says the typical ocean has an alkalinity of 3-4 but the home aquarium should have 4-6. I was also suggested to start using B-Ionic 2 part Calcium & Alkalinity kit. Since i started using it my alkalinity has gone from 5 down to 3. But the bottle of the alkalinity buffer by B-Ionic says the home aquarium should be between 3-3.75.
Currently my Alkalinity is 3 and calcium is at 400ish and PH is 8.0 +/-
