Just ran through some test and found my KH to be 16dKH. My Ca is at 460; Ph in the tank is 8 and drip from my calcium reactor is at 6.5. I will do a water change but any thing else I should be doing to lower KH and then to maintain KH afterwards?

Thanks

Just let your tank be and stop dosing. It should be fine within a week. Salinity is fine. We're talkin of 1/1000 off only. My tank was similar to this readout last week.
 
I used to have lots of problems running my dkh at 8. Lots of SPS STNing. Nowadays I keep my tank at 10-11dkh with better success.
 
Thanks for the input. Should I really be concerned with a dkh of 16? Given my Ca reading, what if anything should I do to bring down dkh?

Thanks

John
