i am currently using red sea pro salt and dose kalk.


i started dosing two parts with my apex, and now my calcium is at 380 and alk is 14+ (my red sea pro kit doesn't read pass 14).


should i lower the dosage for my alk?
 
If you're dosing kalk I don't understand how your calcium can be that low while your alkalinity is that high. Anyone? Have you verified your testing is accurate any way?
 
Lower the doseage. Stop for a few days to let it get back to normal first.
 
since turning off the alk.

my parameters are

Alk 4/11.2
Cal 420
Mag 1320

Now, how do i maintain these numbers with my doser? wait a day and then use brs calculator to get the desired parameters?
