Ok Edward here is my results for the end of week 2. Why is kh and ca keep going up. I am blame it on dead snails shells dissolving there are a number of them that i have pulled out recently and there more still in. And you will see the changes i have made in the dosing plan. I am i on the right track or do u see something i don't? If you do i will change as you instructed me too. Thanks!

Hi

Don’t worry about the decimal places on GH and KH values. Test kits are not that accurate and even if they were, it would make no difference.
The water parameters look pretty stable now. You got it right. Good work.

Looking good Bigfoot
I like how you altered your dosing shows that you understand how to deal with changes and make adjustments. Awesome work

Looking good Bigfoot. Keep it up you are getting the hang of it and yes raising PO4 is a good idea.
