How can I lower my alkalinity? Its always high and ph is always low.

jjgl Member Jan 17, 2005 #4 My calcium level is around 200. so if I get that up to around 450?? MY ALK WILL COME DOWN?
jamnman Member Jan 17, 2005 #5 Yes it will your Calcium is way to low raise it gradually not all at once.
jjgl Member Jan 17, 2005 #7 Oh I see your in Texas. Thats why you can aireate your house. Its about 15 degrees here.
reefnut Active Member Jan 17, 2005 #8 Turbo calcium works well to boost calcium levels. Raise it slowly... lol, it's cold here too. Plants around the tank will help some. What is your PH??
