Run Down:
Salinity: 1.024
Temp: 81 (drops to about 78 before lights come on)
pH: 8.2
Ammonia: 0
Nitrite: 0
Nitrate: <5
Calcium: 500
Alk: 14
Used Refractometer and API Test Kit (doesn't have magnesium).
What can be done to low Calcium/Alk? I thought Alk would be low if Ca is high?
I did add some calcium with a water change a few days ago. Weekly water changes of 10 gallons on a 54 gallon tank with sump. My dosing was small compared to what I typically do in my 25 gallon. I use Oceanic Salt. I have one Monit Cap that has a few white spots, almost like salt creep burned it, but I don't have any salt creep that could have done that. Any advice is appreciated, any more info needed just ask!
Thank You!
