Sg- 1.022 ph-8.3 nitrite- 0 ammonia- 0 dKH- 10 ca- 387 nitrate- 10. I do bi-weekly 5 gal water changes, add non-buffered RO water for evaporation and 4 teaspoons of baking soda weekly. <5 gallons in 90 isn't much, increase to at least 10%, more is better. Use a balanced marine buffer, baking soda will throw your ionic balance off and isn't stable.> I seem to be getting a brownish growth over my rock, sand and now inside my overflow and u tube. Today I vacuumed 1/2 of my 1.5 inch fine sand base.
