I checked my parameters yesterday and all seems well, but my concerns are calcium. My calcium is at 380, now I know that it is not low...but I have a Maxima, torch, bubble algae and some plate corals. Now I was told that my calcium should be between 400 and 450 especially for the clam, and they are calcium hogs. So my parameters are as follows:
PH 8.6
ALK. 3.2
(does this sound righ? I was under the impression the two go hand in hand and one is high and one is low, still in range but low.)
Magnesium in the 1300's
nitrate:0
Phosphate:0
nitrites:0
Salinity:1.026/35
So all my parameters are in check, but I am afraid to dose more calcium because of the ALK levels, they are kind of low and they could fall fast. I was wondering if I should buffer PH/ALK first, and then calium, or just leave it be?
