Calcium and dKh dropping rapidly!

+1 on Salifert

Alright good folks. Got myself a Salifet (I like red sea's box but heard that what's inside matters!). Checked the Mg and found it to be 1350 (what it supposed to be according to my salt). So I am putting Mg aside as the source.

So should I start researching on dosing now?

Yah I like aquavirto (use their salt and love it). So adding calcium and alk won't affect any other params right?

As long as mg is good and no major ph swings you'll be fine

Goody Thanks

FWIW, massive swings in chemistry like that do not bode well for your reef long term. You might have a 'nothing bad has happened yet' situation, but unless you're regularly testing rock solid numbers week after week (with SPS in a very small system, that requires dosing of some kind), you will eventually have trouble.
