![]() Stop measuring Ca and spend your time measuring Alk. I am willing to bet that you can see a measurable decline in Alk daily.
Get on a balanced Ca/Alk delivery plan like Kalk, Ca Reactor or Balling.

![]() I know I got better results with Zeo when I cut the dosages. The 5 drops 2x week is probably more for a fully stocked tank, I have 150g total, and use about 3 drops 3x every two weeks. My colors are great!

![]() also, with 11 small frags, Ca and alk consumption should be very little. For now a 2 part solution would be fine, or kalk in the top off water.

![]() Agreed, corals use calcium not gallons do not. That being said you maintain your DKH on the low side so downward fluctations can result in stress and lightening of your SPS corals.
How about some pictures? Quote:
