I have been having problems latly keeping my Ph up.
Here is what i dose-

Seachem Reef Builder- all make-up water
Seachem Reef Complete- 2x a week
Seachem Reef Plus-2x a week
Drip kalk- 1x a week

Should I go out and get Seachem Reef Buffer 8.3?
What do you guys think?

That is probably why you are having problems, all that stuff you are adding.

Stop it all, do a couple of large water changes and use just the Kalk for Alk, Ca and pH. Drip it in daily to your make-up water. Or go with a two part sup., like B-Ionic or C-Balance and sup that if needs it with a little kalk.

What is your pH, Alk Ca ?

What is your pH at? Need to know that to help, but for now...
Stop dosing everything right now. Do a couple of water changes. all you really need to dose it Kalk, but don't even dose that right now. just do water changes, keep testing your water. Then once it's all back in balance start dosing again. You are putting way too much stuff in your water.

Keep us updated, but please don't dose anything until this is resolved.
