I agree with what Sphelps said. I also plan on dosing when my 225 is up and running. And space isn't a huge concern. Most dosers can draw from jugs that are in different rooms or hidden a floor below although I have set aside room for 3 jugs.

Yeap, plus Ca reactors take up just as much space if not more with the reactor and CO2 tank.

Thought I'd post a picture of my dosing setup. Note the hi-tech bottle on the right for Mg.

Ocean Aquatics isn't carrying the trace elements for the Balling Method yet. Next time I'm on the island I'll check out Progressive Reef.

This is truly the superior method to a CA reactor.

Some day I'll switch from my CA Reactor but for now I'm still fighting with CO2

And I just boguth a CAl Reactor :cry: oh well may have to run this for a 12 month period and then go to a dosing method.

so how much does every one mix i take it the more they grow the more powerful the fluid or am I out to lunch on this.

i really like the way the dosing works Steve when you were talking to me about it it seems different.

Hi

The fluid strength stays the same, as things grow it is the amount dosed that will change, we are not talkign litres a day here only ML's so you can see 5 gallons x 3 will last a heck of a time.
