I do not understand how it is possible but I am sure Chem'ist would say it is.
My calcium is low at 320
Ph at 8.4
my alk/Kh is off the charts at 18.0Dhk/6.4 meg/l and Alk 6.4 meg/l.
I stupidly thought since my calcium was low and my Ph was fine that the Alk was fine as well and my cheap test kit said so.
I bought the Salifert which came with a check vile of water with a Kh of 8.1dhk and it tested correct with the +-.3 it states.
Now how do I lower these numbers without doing a massive water change. How will it affect my corals I have a few LPS like hammer/frogspawn and some soft Zoo's and leathers.:hammerhea
