    well get a pic when you can. you said that you dont dose with anything. but how is your calcium right where it should be? i dont know of any salt that has that amount. i use dd h2ocean and it is 420ppm. IO is alot lower than that usually, 380ppm. if you are dosing with ca, you will have to dose for the alk, and at the same time have a mg level of 1400-1500ppm to keep those in check. i would get a alk and mg test for sure. what time did you test for ph? what are its highs and lows during night and day? whats ur salinity at?
