Follow up to Alkalinity

[Russell]

Thanks to all who replied to my first post on this topic.

I will get my water retested today at my lfs and buy a second test, but I guess what my real question is that with all my parameters being fine, how do I lower my alkalinity and keep it down?

Thanks again,
Russ

Water changes should do the trick as far as getting it down or depending on your calcium level,you might dose a little.Adding calcium will usually drop alkalinity a bit.

yup. water changes - oh, and get corals in the tank that use them up, shrimp use it fast too
