Red Sea Reef Mature Starter kit- help a newbie!

[hflaherty]

Hi,

Have any of you used Red Sea's Reef mature starter kit? We're on day 6 and have tested the KH, which came back as 9dKH, 3.21 meq/l. The kit says to calculate a dose of Coraline buffer to achieve 3 meq/l, but the dose chart only calculates readings under 3 meq. Does this mean we don't need to add anything because our reading is higher than 3?

Thanks!

Don't add any CorallineKH, your already at 9.0 dKH / 3.21 Meq and it wants you at 8.4 dKH / 3.0 Meq. Wait until your under to dose more.

Welcome to r2r


Don’t you have the directions?
I have used the kit and I know the directions specifically site not to add if over 8.6

Also, do some searching on the forum.
Many threads on this kit and you will probably find my old threads on it that might help you out

Good luck
