How much are others dosing

spawn · #1 02-12-2011, 03:52 AM

Just wondering how much other people are dosing in their sps setups. I'm dosing 30ml Ca & 30 Alk using C-balance on this setup with 55 gal nwv. Thats after weekly water changes, the tank is only 9 months old, sometimes I wonder if it's to much, but the are no signs of precipitation. So just wondering what others are dosing?

I am dosing 90ml into my 300 (light sps load) levels are keeping steady and everything looks happy.

40mL Alk and 38mL Ca into my 110. Based on the size of my corals and looking at yours...I'd expect you to be dosing more than me actually.

My levels are steady at 420 and 8.

It wasnt too expensive Brett

i easily dose about 300ml of each per day if not more. I only have a 50g sps reef but they grow like wild fire.
