So over the past week or 2 I've started dosing alkalinity as my tank is well below where i would like it and water changes just don't seem to keep up. I've been using the aquavitro liquids to do so. Here are my tank params using salifert test kits:
20 long tank
Salinity 1.026 using reef crystals
Alk: 7.0
Calcium: 400/410
Mag: 1250
I've been dosing 5 mL of aquavitro eight.four each morning to try and raise the alk but the number never changes. When I test the check solution the kit is spot on and freshly mixed saltwater reads 11 dKH so I don't think the test kit is off. Am I going about something wrong?
