    Perfect? I was told that, that is too high. I should have the DKH at 8.0 and the ALK at 2.9. So which one is it?????:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

    Yep in my book thats the lower end of perfect I run my DKH at 15 to 16on average and the Ca at 450 to 500 and the mag at 1500ppm and its maintianed via a ca reactor and then kalk reactor at night..You'll hear alot of stuff from everyone most are just repeating what they have read and or have been told , But that's me you do what you feel good with . But I'll compare our tank and corals health and growth rates to anyone's.
