I've tried that in the past and it doesn't seem to lower the
alkalinity....where could the high alk be coming from. I'm using
RO/DI water.

My alk was high before the esv, though I was using seachem stuff
instead.

No, but I wouldn't add any more Alk for the next 24 hours to 48 hours. Just
keep dosing your Ca as usual.

My alkalinity is around 5.5-6 meq/l on the salifert kit. I know it is
on the high side, but will it cause me any problems. My tank is a 46

(which will be given a new home when he gets larger and a hammer
coral...and some assorted janitors...I use esv for calcium/alk.
