My current water params:
Mag:1600
Calcium:460
Alk:9 dkh
pH: 7.9-8.1
Sp Gr:1.026
Temp:96.7


Salt: Salinity by Aquavitro

I'm dosing BRS Two Part, but I don't need to dose Mag. Weekly water changes and the level never really gets to what my goal is: 1300.
I'm thinking about changing salts. I don't have high demand from my corals as of yet (only 3, 2 lps and 1 sps) and it doesn't look like anything is affected by it. I don't have any precipitate build up on heater, etc. So do I need to worry? Am I trying to hard? Anyone else use Salinity? I think I may go back to Brightwells Neomarine Reef Salt.
 
y u dose two part if u only have those corals water changes should be enough and yea u temp aint 97 or u having a fish fry tonight lol
 
Those levels, except the temp, are spot on...you don't need to dose at this point, just weekly water changes will do.
 
Oh ****. Anyone for a legion fish fry! :D
Sorry. 78.9. Must have been the kids or scotch!.
I get a lot of evap. 2.5 gallons eod. So I dose soda ash every other day to keep in check. Being anal so when I really need to I will be. About 25 ml EOD. Fish fryyyyyyy!

You know they test each batch at the factory and the results are printed on your bucket. That sticker is specifically for that batch not a general average of all the batches.
