Tim, while you're in the mood for math, what volume from the bottle do I need to add daily to 120g total volume? I ask as my current bottle won't do drops. It just kind of dribbles and squirts I'd rather just measure in a syringe and dose.

Hi Brad,

Need more info... how much Phosphate do you need to neutralize?

All of it, Tim, all of it

Seriously, just trying to dose the recommended dosage of 10 drops per day per 100g. I would guess my PO4 level currently is 0.2ppm or less. But in no rush to drop it...what do you suggest?

I would say of the top of my head to try 0.8 ml a day for a week and then test and see where the tank is at.

Do you run an ATO reservoir or just a float valve off RO?

kk

Just run direct off RO, nowhere to dose it automagically.
