Ok so I recently moved tanks and never got around to moving my doser over. as the tank was 4 times the size during the month its all been moved over the corals have been looking great and I guess were slowly consuming the alk cal mag etc. I was doing water changes but then somebody near me decided to break there tank down and I pretty much filled my 100gal tank with a mix of sps and softies.
They were in there a few days before I figured I really should test the water as I have been lazy with it and also noticed all of my coraline turning white. Even all my snails have gone super white. My LPS looking rather annoyed and even my leathers.
I tested my water and the alk was at 3 dkh. I tested it with 2 different kits and they both came back within a 0.2 of a dkh. Mag is 1120 also stupidly low.
My water normally mixes up around 7.3 and around 1400.
I have reconnected my doser which was setup for my original amount of corals and upped it by 10ml a day on each of the 2 parts just to get the ball rolling and over the past few days I have brought the alk up to 6.1
I was wondering whether I should increase the amount im bringing it up by each day or just let it come up slowly? luckily I havent lost anything yet.
