Doesn't the higher alk rates help maintain the ph ? Are you using a ph monitor and if so how big of a drop in ph were you getting ?

I don't have a problem dripping kalk since I have to topoff anyway.

Normally it does... but if you get excess CO2 in your tank from too high of a bubble count... it will depress your PH. I use a Pinpoint probe that works through my ReefKeeper 2.

I think the combo method works the best... I'll keep you updated on my progress.

I had to trade the Sohal in... He started to nip at my Gonipora and my leather polyps. I fed him well... but it wasn't enough

Sorry about the Sohal, he was beautiful. Tank looks great anyhow and i'd really like to see that monticap up close.
