  13. i am young at this! so if any of you advanced reefers wanna jump in go ahead.... i love learning the thing i do not!
  14. this is the thread i got my info from when i was learning! http://www.aquarianow.com/dynamics/general-saltwater-topics-4/calcium-for-dummies-21/
  15. so using the two part buffer you know you will always be keeping these levels in check!
  16. A calcium level of 500 mg/l is higher than most people run their tanks at but as long as your alkalinity level is also running high it may not be an issue. When high levels (or low levels) of calcium occur in the tank and are out of balance with the alkalinity within the tank, that is normally where this becomes an issue. At the same time that calcium is measured, alkalinity levels should be measured as well. There is a strong relationship between calcium levels and alkalinity that should not be neglected. If the calcium levels get high (over 500) there is a tendency for alkalinity to drop. Conversely, if alkalinity levels get too high, calcium levels will tend to fall as calcium precipitates out.
  17. you can run you calcium up to 2000 if you want! it wont be used! but it wont hurt anything!
  18. plus 20 bucks for more than a months worth of calcium and alk! now thats for someone like me with alot of corals like me! but i think it is worth the money FOR SURE!
  19. by causeing your self more work than its worth (i.e.whack) plus a bunch of trace stuff and you KNOW if you add 1ml per gallon you alk will increase 2.07 kh instantly! you just need to track how quickly you tank is using it along with the calcium.
  20. for right now i would get your alk around 11 . and calcium over 520
