Reef Central Online Community - View Single Post - Need help, drop from 220 to 170 ppm in 12 hours?

I'm not trying to keep it that high, happy maintaining at 8-9. Having a hard time keeping up the values. My goal is swings of .5 or less per day.

Adding 1.1 liters got me back to 210.(only over 12 hours) So figure my usage over 24 hours is around 2.0-2.3 liters per day. I'm just shocked in a few months my consumption skyrocketed this much as coral growth exploded. Used to get by with just kalk and vinegar in the top off.

So these numbers are definitely viable usage?
