    I try to keep alkalinity between 8.5 and 7.5 dKH, Calcium at 430, Magnesium at 1350, phosphate at 0.02 and nitrate at 5. Salinity is at 34 ppt and temp is between 77.5 and 78.5.

    It varies, I have an APEX and at night it drops to 7.88 and during the day goes up to 8.02. I am trying to raise that by running the skimmer airline outside to draw in fresh air. So far is has brought my pH up to 7.95 during the night.
