Quick chemistry question I’m trying to figure out to help a friend but a bit stumped.
They claim to have: a
- 14dkh
- no dosing
- Red Sea Pro salt (12dkh), 1/3 water change per week
- softies only
- well water source with RODI
- not a new tank but probably not super established/stable either
Is a 14dkh (higher than freshly mixed salt) even possible? What would you recommend? I'm thinking a lower alk salt but as to why it’s high i'm not sure? Maybe high alk source water coupled with high alk salt and low demand? test error? other?
Thoughts? thanks
test error?
