saixiong Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 I did my test using red sea test kit and these were my reading. is it ok for soft and lps? Calcium-385 Alk-9.8 Mg-1240 Link to comment
chipmunkofdoom2 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Those values are within what most people agree is best for a reef. Personally I would elevate the Mg a bit, but it's not terribly low. Calcium is a bit on the lower side too, but without too many hard corals it won't matter a whole lot. It's much more important that you keep these values stable rather than have specific values. Soft corals and LPS are typically less demanding than SPS when it comes to parameters, but even still. Stability is the key. Link to comment
saixiong Posted February 22, 2017 Author Share Posted February 22, 2017 Thanks I've heard that too. Just wanna make sure they're ok before I even purchase any Link to comment
braaap Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Stability is the key. If you keep them at those levels you won't have any issues at all. Link to comment
