So, over the past couple weeks my alkalinity has been creeping up, but my coral load has increased. Calicum is at 450 mag is around 1600, alk has risen from 9.25-10.64. I took the Calcium reactor offline when it started to creep up. The only difference in the tank is the addition of Reef Vitality by Fauna Marin but that shouldnt have any effect on alk, unless one of the biopolymers is causing it. So thoughts on what is increasing my alk. Could it be CO2 build up in the house decreasing the ph in the water causing some dissolving in the tank, kinda like a reaction that happens in the CARx? Note is that my skimmer is rated for 1300g on a 300g system. Now my salinity was a little higher than I would like it at 1.026. I did order some new alk reagent and I test it weekly. I will test it again today. I removed about 5 gallons of water last night and will let the ATO fill it back up today, which should decrease my salinity and alk. Thoughts??
