Here is a thread on Reef Central where people discus the effect of high alkalinity with different setup. It is interesting to read about all these people experiences:

Daniella is right about low nutrients and high alkalinity, but that is more of an issue with ultra low nutrients when carbon dosing. That's why you see Zeovit recommending 7 dKH.

For the newbies, carbon dosing is not the carbon you put in the filter.
