Alk precipitation

[mraysberg]

I have a bunch of alk precipitation all in my tank. I did a water change yesterday but can’t seem to get rid of it. I dosed some seachem reef 1 and 2 before but stopped 2 weeks ago. Also I changed my salt to Red Sea coral pro. I know there’s more calcium and what not. So how do I get rid of all this precipitation because I want it to be crystal clear in there

Is your ph high ?
Are you using a bicarbonate additive to raise your alk ?

 

[mraysberg]

Ph is in the lower side 8.0-8.2 and also I’m not using anything at all.

If your not dosing for raising alk, then I have to ask what makes you think it's alk precipitation....could be a few other things.

 

[mraysberg]

I was using seachem reef fusion 1 and 2

Ahhh,
It may have something to do with magnesium precipitation then, I'll let someone more knowledgeable take it from here...
