    Help needed with maintaining Alk/ Cal levels in Biocube 29

    Help needed with maintaining Alk/ Cal levels in Biocube 29

    I like the idea of kalk, but using it in ato will vary the input due to varying evap rates. I'd suggest a drip or dosing pump.

    Is my polyp dying or infected?

    Red Sea Reef Foundation Test kit questions

    10-20% variation does sound a bit much. I think I'd be concerned over +/- 5%.
