As this system is probably designed for fairly large systems, dosing 50ml in a small tank is very different than in a 150g system. I just think the initial dosing could be a lot more accurate if we knew the purity of the chemicals - it's very important to me as I run a nano tank of ~28g total volume, and dosing too much in the small volume could have dramatic consequences.

I need to know if I should set my profilux doser to 1 ml, or if I should go with 50 ml, or somewhere in between. It would be nice to have a ballpark figure so I can figure out the approximate molarity of the stock solution before I go an add it to my small system, as I have several inhabitants that I have found to be very sensitive to swings in alkalinity in particular.
