Question:

My water chemistry Ca, Mg, are very stable round 400 and 1300, but find my kH dropping without constant dosing of Reef Buffer.

My Ca reactor has automated CO2 via a pH controller and is set at 6.1. Reactor doses for 20min intervals every 2 hours during daylight hours, totalling 120mins. Media is 75% Hydrocarbonate and 25% Dolomite.

Any suggestions on how to balance out the kH by adjusting settings or would a seperate kH reactor be advised??

Kind regards,
George

Dear God

Not many tank journals I comment on but this is a very rare tank indeed. I see you've held back on fish till late in the show and your rock is all the better for it I think. I will be doing the same in the new house/new tank.
I'm a big fan of the less common macro algae growing in the display tanks, kept in check of course.
Are you still running bio balls in the sump?
I must admit when I saw that at start up my eyebrows were a little raised. Not saying its wrong, just that most systems cant handle the huge production of N03 they produce.
Gorgeous system mate :clap:
