Then I got home tonight and it didn't look good. Not terrible but coloration and polyp extension was poor.

Tested and found ALK was 4!

Wow it dropped fast. I have noticed that a few of my corals have been growing so fast lately that I can literally see the different every day or two. Especially my big red cap....its really 'branching out'.

I guess I need to test ALK a few times a week instead of just once a week or two.

One acro is receding a little from the bottom

Hopefully I can get the ALK back up to 7 over the next few days and things will get better.


EDIT: Added some Two part and raised it to 4.5 for tonight. In the morning, I will go for 5 and then 5.5 at night. Keep going until 7-8....
Join the club man!! I am having a tough time getting my whole triangle up... Ca is low (<400) Alk is low (6.4-7.4) Mag (<1260)...


Good Luck!
