My alkalinity is the only thing that suffers a bit in my tank. My Calc. and Mag. are where they are supposed to be but my Alk. usually runs around 5.6 dkh. I try to supplement it with a Alk. buffer everyday but sometimes I have a hard time getting it to around 7.
By not having my Alk. higher is this actually slowing the growth of my corals since the Calc. dosen't have as much Alk. to combine with?
Also what product do you recommend for raising Alk.? I can't have a Calc. reactor because I am in College and it dosen't fit my budget or my space in my room.
I use Kents Superbuffer-DKH which does an alright job of maintaining Alk. I have tried B-Ionic Alk. and it was horrible at keeping my Alk. Stable. I use Oceanic Salt and do not want to change as I do really like it.
