That's a crazy amount to be making up in that small of a volume... I dont know if it's just me, but it seems alot.

I notice in my system, as long as I keep my Mg up at 1320ppm, which I add once every 1.5-2 weeks, the other params dKh and Ca are more stable and don't change that much. However, when my Mg drops to 1280, I notice the dKh dropping hard.

My params are listed below. Note, I do dose seachem reef buffer, and seachem advantage calcium. I use seachem advantage magnesium.

Mg - 1320
dKh - 8.0
Ca - 420-440

I have great growth and coloration utilizing this setup. I also use the red sea alk tester.
