ok it has now been 3 weeks and i still can't get my 2 part to maintain my alk and calcium. some days i need to add 12 ounces calcium and 7 ounces alk. i see that 300 ML of both is about normal for my size tank with the amount of clams and corals i have, should i just set both at this rate and leave it there for a week or should i keep trying to add large doses to keep my parameters maintained with the large doses?
thanks jeff

i would suggest you get the alk and cal where they should be and then maintain thet level .

Sounds like you're dosing quite a bit. I would double check your test kits. Take a sample to an LFS and have them check it.

If they match up, then maybe you should check in the chemistry forum. You'd probably be able to get more help in there.
