Good idea. Just watch that the pH doesn't drop, right?

Thanx much and cheers,

I dunno know about that, low alk in my trigger tank has always caused problems, usually "dust ball gross algae rock breakdown detritus syndrome"...

Dang! Well I'm gonna use it anyway. Can't be bother with goin' through the return process. I'm gonna mix 2 cups of the Kent with 8 to 9 cups of Instant Ocean until the Kent is all gone. My tank is low on Ca right now so the high Ca is a good thing. I'm interested in checking out SeaChem salt also.



That 0.913 measurement...is that meq?

Cheers,

I believe is was dkh. But I might be wrong.
