Next Problem.
ok, another issue.
So a few weeks ago I noticed one of my cats was in the process of releasing from its 'rock'. All levels seemed ok, did some reading and apparently can happen if the coral isn't happy, so I moved it but no luck, once it released I removed it. Everything else was fine for a week or 2, then noticed a small hammer I have had for ages was doing the same. Another test and calcium was through the roof. I had turned it down to 1ml per day, guess it was too much. Also my Po4 had gone way up to 0.4!
So did a few decent water changes and running GFO at 50% recommended level to try slowly bring the Po4 down and monitoring the calcium. My NSW is at around 430ppm, tank is over 500ppm and doesn't seem to be dropping even with around 70% water changed. Have turned all dosing etc off completely now, will carry on monitoring.
Anyone got any ideas on how to bring calcium down or see any issues below? Apart from the obvious.
Ph 7.5
Ammonia 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 1
Po4 0.4
Calc 500+
Alk 2.8
Mag 1250
