So, recently I have been getting some browning and loss of color on some my sps along with loss of polyp extension. Long story short I found out my phosphates are .23 and it is suppose to be .07 (I might be a tenth of a decimal for both those values) So considering I have a 75 gallon mixed reef with 8alk 420 cal and 8.3 ph. What is the best process of adding the rowa? How much should I add and when should I just add to the bag every few days?

Ps I dont have a reactor so it will be going in a bag in the sump.

Better raise your alk that rowa will lower it calcium is also a bit low aim for 480 to 500 with sps p04 anything under 0.10 ppm should be fine

Add the Rows slowly. I started with a 1/4 recommended dosage. Still using under the manufacturer specs. Stuff works great, but as mentioned before, ALK can suffer
