This is why i dont trust trident. Alk went up .2, Ca went down 50 and MG went up with no dosing. I get that it is probably within the margin of error but imagine if I put some dosing automations around this.
I threw a number of emerald crabs in there...ignored the bubble complete and went for my euphyillia. I wont use them again.
Not to rub your nose in it..but my rabbit fish has done wonders. Sorry you cant get one.

Turn over is about 10x per hour. I...

Stupid question for everyone. My calcium is a bit on the high side (505'ish). I dose Kalkwasser via a pertalistalic constant doser at a very low range. If my Alk gets above 9 I turn off the dosing.
I have been trying to dose two park alkalinity to keep the alk at just enough that the...
