Calcium Precipitation

[HUKIT]

Hardness 300
Alkalinity 180
pH. 8.0

I have almost the identical parameters and calcium deposits are the bane of my existence. Even with glass lids I still get the creep on every tank in the house.

I usually use vinegar on soaked rags to soften it up for removal.

This tank below even has a cover on the overflow yet still creeps…

Hmm…that is a mystery then. Odd why your angelfish tanks gets it but not the other.

It's a HUGE mystery.
