I just setup my frag tank about a month ago.
All of the water parameters are A+, as with all of my other tanks.
but yesterday I tested my Kh/ALK (salifert kit) and it was off the charts.
My alk is testing at 5.7+ and dkh is over 16.
I cant figure out whats going on. my Ph is 8.2 and my calcium is around 440 ppm.
what else effects alk? the only things in the tank are some lps and shrooms.
should I buff the water?
the corals are doing fine am I overreacting?
