My calcium has been stuck at around 340 for quite a while now. I just started adding supplements in the last few months to try and get it up.
For the past few weeks i've been adding Seachem Reef Builder every couple of days and using Buffer 8.3 periodically to keep my alk around 8. But I still cannot get my calcium to climb. I also periodically does a bit of Aragamilk.
I do have quite a large colony of Halimeda in the sump... could this be eating 'that' much calcium? My coralline growth has been pretty good lately...
I have only a few softies and lps.
I use instant ocean salt and API test kits. I do about 10% water changes every couple weeks.
I do not yet have a magnesium test kit... I'm pretty sure I need one.
Thanks for any input.
