Life is busy and tank maintenance sometimes falls behind. That being said got back to it yesterday. Did a 20% wc. Normally I keep Alk.8.6 Ca.480 Mag.1440. Checked levels this morning at 8:30. Testing showed Alk.6.7 Ca.375 Mag.1155. Mag. is something that I have just started recently paying attention to so not a lot of experience with it.
http://reef.diesyst.com/chemcalc/chemcalc.html used this site and did the cal.
Got my recommended dosing. Did my Alk.100ml total what was called for Ca.300ml total called for 721ml.
Mag. 1000ml total called for 3135.
Shortly there after I realized just how much of a mistake I have made. All day I have been watching the slow demise of living things in the tank other than the fish. Sps BLEACHING before my eyes. Lsp are RECEDING into skeletons. All zoas and nems CLOSED.
This is the worst feeling that I have the entire time I have been is this hobby. I blown away at how bad of a mistake I've made.
I guess its like what they say about riding motorcycles. It's not about if you crash but when.
