20mg* per gallon yes. I used slightly more as I didn't feel like splitting up 80% of a capsule. And did you mean to say everyone? Or every dose? Cause it only takes one dose

And thanks for doing that research Dearth ^^^ helpful info to add here.

I couldn't get it mix completely without sediment, not sure if it's possible unless maybe alcohol is used? Don't use alcohol though just shake it the best you can with tank water and let er flow.

Cool bro, I just dosed 3 pills in my 110g system... for whatever reason the bryopsis is only in the sump, it may be due to lower flow and sediments settling feeding the weeds. Anyhow it didn't dissolve well so I poured it on the affected areas. Hoping the undisolved powder will be extra strength against the weeds lol.

I should've took some pics for document reasons but will let it brand update my progress.

So you dosed about 1/4 of what others have done. That should be a good test. I know people are wondering what the minimum amount would be to see results.
Let us know how that works.

Yah I guess roughly 5mg to a gallon, was just thinking should dose abit first to see if anything happens and if not do a second dose. I learned the hard way with vibrant lol.

If you could give it 48hrs since dosing to see if there's a difference that would be sweet, that's about the time it definitely shows an impact
