Ammonnia, Nitrates - all 0
PH - 8-8.2
calc - 440
alkalinity - 6-8

Total water in system is 170G

the anemone is in my tank for ~ 1 year and in general was perfect. Two months ago increased alkalinity from 6 to 8 and started to drip Kalk, but looks like my tank consume carbonates in big values, and I was not able to to keep it even at 7.
Last week started to use Soda Ash and was continue to drip Kalk. The PH was increasing at the moment of adding Soda, but in few minutes it was going back to 8.2. This is normal as per RBS instructions.

here is the anemone and looks like parts of the tentacles are getting rotten at the end
Thanks guys

I am no expert here but if it was me I would doing whatever I starrted before the change and water changes to get the stuff out then research other ways to increase what you are trying to increase.
