KH is carbonate hardness, or Alk is it not? And it seems like it is remarkably high. It should be in the 100-120 range and it is 170. I will be double dosing Mg this morning. It has a warning that it can reduce KH, but that's what I want. I will get an Mg test kit soon. I have not dosed Mg at all in this tank but used to have to suppliment weekly in my 10 gallon to keep KH down and Ca up. Hopefully the Ca will come up after that. Has anyone tried the liquid reactor Ca suppliment. The LFS had nothing but good to say about it.
