The reason baking soda is not good is it initially decreases you ph. in my situation it was recomended by Reefcentrals chemistry guru to use baking soda to increase my alk because i dose kalk to maintain. if you are using baking soda on a consistant basis then it will throw out the ionic balance of your tank out or something like that :rolleyes:

yes kim kalk is balanced but like tony said it works well to maintain levels but raising is not too possible with the use of it.

I did use baking soda over the past few days to raise my alk and kent sbdkh, but my calcium droped to 360.

slow and steady wins the race.

oooooo if those guys arent going to pick up their mysis gold, i will buy it :D
