FWIW, the Balling Light method mixes up to very similar concentrations as Randy's Recipe #1. I did the math awhile back so I could reference the uptake in my SPS tank. My tank uses about 1.25 mL per gallon per day each of calcium and alkalinity to try to give you a rough idea of what you might need. The only corals in the tank are SPS, but no clams.

Also, I do use the Trace 1, Trace 2, and Trace 3 elements in my dosers which is the full Balling Light method. Many people say they use the Balling Light method, but they are only using the calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium which is like Balling Light Light.
