Hi
I have setup a calcium reactor on my system, to try to keep SPS.
I have made the mistake of running the reactor for too long each day.
I only noticed this when some of the SPS polyps didn't come out.
Upon checking the water params are as follows:
KH is now 16 (5.71 meq/l)
CA is now 520
MG is now 1350
PO4 is now 0.01
NO3 is now <5
I have done two large water changes (20%) and the params above are as they are now (ie. after the water changes).
Does anyone have any hints or tips on how I can reduce the KH and CA?
Thanks
