So far as I can see, your current level is within your indicated parameters. 420 is well within the +/- 50 of 450. Could you be more specific about what you would like to happen and what is and has been happening?

I would like it to keep 450 , this is how I understand it, and it is keep going down , gmm
 
Well, you may never have it reading at that exact level, necessarily. You are trying to keep it within a range. You have +/- 50. So desired value of 450 + 50 will yield a top of 500. 450 - 50 will yield a bottom of 400. That is your range that you have selected where the trident will have control over the dosing. Depending on when and how often you have the test performed by your Trident and at what stage your dosing schedule is in while testing will have an influence on the final parameter displayed. It also takes some time for the level to flatten out and reach your desired level. In other words, your test could be occurring while the dosing is still in the process of raising or lowering to reach the desired set level. Hopefully, you started everything going with the desired level already achieved and have calculated your consumption and dosing amount based on that consumption. These will be your beginning levels. You still may have to tinker with the dosing volumes and increase the number of tests performed to get closer.

BTW, your Alk and Ca levels are spot-on balanced at this time. https://www.ultimatereef.net/pages/calcium_alkalinity/
