Yeppers. I have this trouble too. If I don't don't do a waterchange (and adjust then), once a week I have to remove about a gallon and replace it with RO. Off the top of my head I think I add about 130 mL per day of calcium and about 100 mL alkalinity.

I'm going to take out some corals this coming week, in hopes that the CA demand will drop & I won't have to put so much in any more.

No suggestions but that is an awesome looking tank!

That would be a shame to remove anything from that tank.

Why not simply manually remove some water here and there and let the ATO refill it?
