30% water changes every week
I had notice that every time I test my parameters calcium gets lower, I use Red Sea pro test kit. Im using Instan Ocean saltmix, I used to use Reef Crystal before but stopped it because alk and mag were high. Now those elements are where I want them to be but not for calsium.
My questions are:
Should I go back to Reef Crystal and deal with high levels of alk and mag?
Or keep using IO saltmix and dose calcium in every water changes?
I test every 2 weeks!!
Calcuim levels
Alk levels
Mag levels
Thanks for reading!!!
