Nice tank

But I wonder why do you have to dose? Your tank doesn't seem to have too much "hungry" stuffs. Just curious :P

My alk was dropping from 8.9dKH to 6, sometimes 5.8 in 7 days!
Also, my Ca was dropping from 440 to 390ppm.
Mg was fropping from 1340 to 1280ppm.

Just figured I'd dose to get the alk where I wanted it and to keep everything stable. Ever since I did, the colors came back on everything (SPS), and the milli actually really started to encrust and grow. For the longest time it just sat there with no progress, but in the last month it's been quite amazing.

My clam on the other hand has been growing quite a bit as well before I was dosing, so that might have been where it was all going instead of my SPS.
