I have been having intermittant deaths for a little while now. First a clown, then a shrimp, the odd coral here and there. I kept testing and everything was fine. They weren't all at once, so I was a little baffled. Last week I took a sample to LFS and they said my alk was critically low. They told me pretty much anything that molts right now will probably die. I've been dosing with Reef Carbonate 2X a day since saturday, so I'm going to do a test tonight. Question though, will this also raise my ph? I was told my ph was low too, I don't know why this didn't show on my tests, although I'll be honest and tell you I haven't been testing as often as I should....
