Please help me with my chemistry, should I be dosing?

Hello!

I am at the point, where I will not be adding additional corals for a while. Testing every day for 14 days (missed one) to see the consumption of the big three with current roster of live stock.

 

IM 10
20-25% WC/Weekly

Tropic Marin Salt

1.0025 Salinity

78 degrees

Red Sea Test Kit

10 Corals - only LPS and Softies

Majority doing great.

 

(Please bear in mind that I am new to testing of these elements and that might show in fluctuation - hence 14 days straight)

I know it is tough to judge after only 5 tests but I wanted initial feedback. Does it look like I should be dosing anything? They are all staying within respectable parameters. Perhaps my weekly water change replenishes everything I need.

 

Thanks!

It doesn't look like much of a drop occurs in 4 days.

 

Personally I wouldn't dose for such a small drop in 5 days. 10.4 - 9.8 isn't huge if you do weekly waterchanges.

 

Now as corals grow this consumption will change so from time to time do a 7 day monitor of alk.
