![]() My tank seems to consume an ever-increasing amount of supplements that I can't seem to elevate levels or maintain them for more than a couple of days, has this happened to anyone else with an sps dominant setup. I'm increasing the dose amounts every time I test which is 1-2 times a week. I want it to level off. any ideas.

![]() rather than raising each time you should:
1. test 2. make a correction dose (using a reef calculator) which gets your levels where they should be. (if needed) 3. increase the amount you dose for a few days (if needed) 4. go back to step 1 Last edited by imcosmokramer; 09-28-2011 at 09:00 PM. |

![]() -if your problem is Ca, what's your Mg? ca/mg =~1:3 ratio.
-what's the levels of your SW mix? could be every time you change water you're driving the levels down. -how much you supplementing? just might be comparable to what others are adding
