Tested my tank Kh tonight dropped to 6.2 :burp:

checked calc reactor Kh is only coming out at 28 at 50ml a min (delted pf601)

:D if i slow the feed through reactor to raise the Dkh will it help or surely allthough dkh will rise from reactor the amount of water coming out and going in the tank will drop, and so not be enough to maintain kh

excuse me if im being thick please enlighten me guys :lol:

Assuming the reactor is running fine, has plenty of media in it and it quite literally is just a drop in output dkh then you could try adjusting the flow, but what I do is keep my flow at about the same rate and just adjust the ph on the controller. So in your case drop the ph on the controller a little, say 0.03 -> 0.05 and check it in the morning.
