I cannot control my alkalinity

Nitrate 5ppm
Nitrite 0ppm
Ammonia 0ppm
Ca 440ppm
Mg 1400ppm
Phosphate 0ppm
salinity 1.026
Temp 78
pH 8.1-8.3 (daily changes)

I dose with Red Sea part B every day a good amount for only having 25 gallons of water. I raise it to 12 and 24 hours later it is 8.1 on avg. That is a huge swing.

Ca I have to dose once to two times a week. I mix kalk at 2 tsp per gallon in my ATO. I tank uses about a gallon a week in ATO water.

Why does my kalk swing so much? I have been reading 12 is better. I have mostly softies and LPS with 2 SPS. All in my opinion are still small frags.
