So, I'm showing some high calcium levels and have a few questions. First, here are my levels: Spec Grav 1.024
Ammonia and Nitrite 0
Nitrate 10
Alk 280ppm
PH 7.8
and Calcium just over 520
Questions: 1) As long as PH stays ok, will my fish and inverts be ok?
2) This was after a tank upgrade in which several of my coral seem to have died, will dead coral spike the ammonia?
3) Orange stuff is forming on my new base rock, is this from the calcium, and should I be worried?
4) Will this inhibit algae growth? And is the calcium killing my algae?
5) My Mushrooms seem to be doing great, is this calcium spike GOOD for coral growth?
6) Anything else I should be concerned about if the other levels keep testing ok?
Sorry for all the questions, but you guys are all great with the answers.
Thanks in advance for your input!
