Default

day 4 with reactor set up
troubles now
sality1.023
calcium 460
alk 15 dkh - (was at 11 to start jumped to 15)
mag-1260
temp -78.9
turned down reactor to a 1(co2):2(drip effulent) 60/120 ratio and my alk has went thru the roof to 15, efulent ph reads at 7.4

last night i dropped the co2 rate to 30 drops per minute and alk has dropped to 13.4
i turned up the drip of efulent a bit , almost a steady run.This morning i noticed that the efulent has raised to 7.7 on the Ph probe.Would this cause the PH to raise as now that there is more flow thru reacter because of drip rate is higher?
Also should this lower the alk reading as well?
