1: Is ok to be raising my KH/CA levels, while I am using a kalk fresh water top off?
2: Currently my KH=9DKH and my CA=400PPM!
I would like to bring my KH level up just a bit, to stay on top of this Red Slime bacteria I have taken control of. I understand that I do not want to raise any of these levels with Kalkaser mix (Rather I will use the appropriate buffers), but how can I raise my KH level to about 10/11 DKH while keeping my CA level in its current desired range? Since they both coincide with one another, how do I raise the level of my KH, while not depleting my CA level?
Also; once these levels have been achieved, is it possible to sustain them while using kalk top off, even though the params will be out of balance?
Thanks,
J.
