Nope, pulled a pump apart: very little precip. I just don't understand what could have caused the Ca level to rise so fast. There has been no change in the tank, except for a few SPS and zoa frags I added four days ago. Corals are growing so the Ca requirements shouldn't have dropped. I'm really baffled by this one. I have stopped dosing Ca until the levels get back to normal and will see what happens.
