Looking good except KH.  Bump KH up to 8.5-9.0 range by giving more C02.

 

Apex is used to prevent solenoid malfunction to swing KH too high ( too low of KH when solenoid is dead :-) ).

 

if ph above 6.5 then ON, less then 6.4 then off ( KH high, Reactor's PH dropped.  KH low, Reactor PH raised). Raise or lower KH by giving or reducing CO2 gas using the CO2 knob on solenoid.

 

I have 2 PH probes, 1 in sump and 1 in reactors and I view them daily on my phone to make sure things are running well ( so is temp and salinity ).  My sump's PH around 8.2 and my reactor's PH around 6.8-6.9 range.
