Tanks getting to the point where i have to add a buncha stuff, ive already had and removed vodka dosing cause i had a nitrate issue 40+ ppm to no 0.1ppm so need to correct that,
but mainly my calc is at ~290 and ive been doing alk doising to keeep it at roughly 9dkh mag is stitting around 1250

best way to raise that mag and calc, and the alk is just baking soda solution on a drip feed
