Calcium 400 per salifert, Kh 11.5/4.11 per salifert. Don't have p.h. test kit as of now. So now what. B ionic A/B solution used daily 40 mil each

Input your levels, prduct you are using, and volume of water and this will tell you what to do: http://home.comcast.net/~jdieck1/chem_calc3.html

I'd stop dosing alkalinity for a bit, to let it drop to 3.5-4.0 meq/L, at least. You could let calcium drop or keep adding the calcium part.

How long should I do this for? And thank you.

[bertoni]

Every tank has a different consumption rate for alkalinity, so only some testing will tell you when it's time to dose again. I'd expect it to take a couple of days or less in an established tank with coralline or stony corals.

Well, that calculator link that I posted will just tell you how to make a quick change to balance a level that is low. You will need to test often for a awhile to determine how often and how much to add to keep your levels stable.
