Alk-8.5
Mag-1600

Effluent rate-38ml/min
Bubble rate-20 bpm

I have adjusted been able to adjust the ph(from 6.82-6.80) and obtain the levels above..

Look and sound ok?

I found that higher than 6.5 my reactor couldn't keep up; lower than that and I started to get mush. It's a temperamental balance between CO2 addition and effluent rate. One of the reasons why the BEST thing I ever did for my reactor was to get a masterflex pump.
