My calcium stays high and I was told it may be that my alkalinity was off creating a high calcium condition. So I buy a seachem alkalinity test kit and it doesn't work very well. It says to add one drop and the solution will turn blue - then and more drops until the solution turn yellow. It never even turned blue much less yellow!! :frustrat: I got frustrated and didn't try it again last night - but I will try again tonight. my calcium stays around 520. I am using oceanic salt and am only dosing the tank with amino acids and strontium. nitrates/trites and amonia are 0 - phosphates are between 0-.5. Everything appears healthy and has good growth. how does everyone test for alk? which test kit should I get and what level do I want my alk at?
Thanks for the help
