My tank has been up and running for 6 months now (125 gallon) and everything seems to be going well. I recently got and installed a apex reef controller and have been monitoring my PH for the last few weeks. I have noticed that it is slowly decreasing with time. I do 15 gallon water changes once a week and my water is decent. I tested my water on saturday and I had 0 ammonia, 0 nitrites, .8 nitrates, 9.2 kh for alkalinity, phosphates at 0.04, magnesium at 1400, and calcium at 420. My fish and corals seem happy but i am a little concerned with the downward trend on PH. I calibrated my ph probe about 2 months ago. today my ph topped out at 7.95 and is now 11 PM at 7.76. It seems to not want to get above 8 at all. I run a skimmer and GFO reactor but thats it. No dosing of anything and no additional reactors. Not sure what is keeping my PH down. Any thoughts and suggestions would be appreciated. I am thinking about adding kalk to my ATO water to help bring up my PH but i am sure on what else kalk would do to my system.
Thanks
