because am using sugar size sand, vacuuming it is out of the question. I have tried this several times and because of it's size all the sand just end up in the bucket with the water.

any recommendation in helping me raise the ph without affecting the alk or ca?

As the system recovers I would like to share a handful of pics of the corals that are starting to recover.

I've always used BRS 2 part, but as we speak I've also added BRS Kalk to help with significant PH drop.....

Certain folks on the board have their own characteristic look to their photos. I always enjoy staring at yours you shoot and process some sweet pics =)

Wow, those shots are amazing! Makes me want to quietly delete every picture I've ever taken of my tank and start over.
