My alkalinity is very low, around 1. I used the salifert test kit, which should be accurate. So i'm trying to dose B-ionic alkalinity and calcium. The alkalinity went up to around 2.0 and my ph dropped like crazy...what's happening, what should i do? I did a change of 5 - 10 gallon of water change and the ph is back to 8.2......how can i increase alkalinity without a drop in ph? Thanks
Oh, when i was trying to test for calcium using the salifert test kit. I follow every instruction on the paper....the color of the water is suppose to turn from pink to a clear blue...after the whole 1ml of Ca-3 was gone, the color is still pink? What could be the problem? Thanks in advance. : )
