I use a
sump with filter pads and a protein
skimmer as well as
live rock/live sand for filtration.
I have double tested and compared the results with two different test kits and am coming up with the same numbers so I don't think that taking samples to the
lfs would help.
Also, since my alkilinity is relatively close to 0, should I add a buffer to bring it up and if so, to what level and does anyone have a recommended method of increasing alkalinity?
Thanks,
Steve
