Alkalinity burn can wreck an SPS tank fast — especially when you think your numbers are “fine.”
In this video, we’re breaking down Alkalinity Burn 101 — what causes it, how to recognize the early warning signs, and most importantly, how to slow it down and help your corals recover.
If you’re seeing:
• Burnt or white SPS tips
• Tissue recession starting at growth points
• Sudden color loss or browning
• Reduced polyp extension
• Issues after dosing changes
You might be dealing with alkalinity burn.
We’ll cover:
✔ What alkalinity burn actually is
✔ Why fast alk swings trigger it
✔ The connection between nutrients and high alkalinity
✔ Common dosing mistakes
✔ How to stabilize your tank
✔ What recovery realistically looks like
Alkalinity stability is one of the most important factors in a successful SPS reef tank. Quick changes — even “good” changes — can stress corals harder than slightly imperfect but stable numbers.
If this helps you save a coral, drop a comment and let me know what your alkalinity is currently sitting at.
