Just my personal experience here but I have never seen a benefit to higher dKH or any other number that deviates much from natural seawater. But man I have smoked some corals by chasing the latest and greatest parameter fads (high no3/po4 with high dKH, high mg, etc) lol. As such I shoot for dKH: 6.5-7.5, Mg 1200-1500, NO3 less than 5, PO4 less then 20ppb (on my Hannah ulr). Numbers in that range have never done me wrong. Happy reefing man
