I finally received the Red Sea Foundation test kit. Here are the results.
Tanks Salinity is 35ppt
Ph= 8.1
POS=0
MG= 1700 Suggested target 1390. Is this a dangerous level. Whats the best way to bring it down.
KH/ALK= 2.3/6.4 Suggested target 4.5/12.6 I am using TLF A&B , Can anyone advise which...
Would that be ten times more wattage or light intensity at a given bulb size. I guess my question is if I upgrade to a 100 w in place of a 10w. Would that then kill Protozoa.
Excellent read. Thank you. I am using Seachem Phosgaurd. I do not see any information relating to the product preventing drops below .04. Do you know if this product complies? Can you recommend one that does?

I am ordering all new test kits today. I will get the red sea foundation. Once I get all of the numbers I will post. Thank you all for the reply. I really want to restock the tank but need to figure this out first.
