    My tank is about 6 months old its calcium is at 460 its mag is at 1360ish my alk just started dropping a couple of weeks ago I primarily have softies and 3 LPS. My question is when you dose alk does it make a white cloud and is this normal. Im dosing into my sump and using a kent drip system when a drop hits the water it makes a little white puff. Just wondering if this is normal. Thanks for all the help.
