Hi guys, in need of a bit of advice.
My parameters arent bad, but some things do need tweeking slightly.
Ammonia - 0
Nitrite - 0
Nitrate - 0-5
pH - 8.0-8.2
Phosphate - 0-0.1
Calcium - 500
Mg - 1100
Sg - 1.024
KH - 5
The ones which need tweeking are of course my KH which is low and my Mg. pH could also due to be maintained at 8.2-8.3.
The salt brand I use when mixed to 1.026 gives params of:
Ph 8.3
Ca 560
Mg 1440
KH 11.
Yet still in my tank I am getting those other params.
What would you guys recommend I dose to raise KH, buffer ph slightly and raise Mg?
thanks
Josh
