What is your PH of your Topoff RO/DI when mixed with kalk and vinegar?

[fernandokng]

I'm currently topping off with kalk, but I'm also mixing vinegar to counteract the high ph due to the kalk.

When I tested the ph of the ro/di with kalk, I'm still getting readings above 8.8, even after I added the vinegar. The vinegar dosage is based on 45ml per 1 gallon of limewater (based on Randy's recommendation on Reefkeeping.com).

Is this normal? Or should I expect the ph of the limewater around 8.2 after mixing with vinegar...

Never had any problems with Higher PH in my system.. As a matter of fact I saw deeper colors on my Sps.. I'm talking 8.6 to 8.9... Never used vinegar in kalk,, sorry..
I like high PH and so do my corals..

instead of dosing it through top off, try dripping it only at night, that's what i do and have had success, but then agin i dont test either, but my coraline has exploded
