So my cal is at 460-480 and my dkh is only 6! This is API tests and all i have for supplements are cal additive, magnesium, and Ph buffer! Wth....any comments or suggestions are appreciated. I tested because 2 frags of acro are fine but 2 others are closed on polyps and the monti superman is also showing no polyps!
How soon after you dosed did you test? In your size tanks, I don't know that I'd dose at all....
Have you tested your water parameters of freshly mixed salt to see what that is giving you? What brand do you use? I have run across a few bad batches here and there with really high or really low dKH right out of the container and had to just throw it out.
I'm inclined to think that your dKH test isn't reading properly either. a dKH of 6 is REALLY low and you'd probably be experiencing more problems than you currently are with just 2 acro frags.
