The amounts are different because I switch from salt to salt weekly for water changes causing a higher average alk addition than Ca addition, & When I get into my big build I may look at a reactor though to see if there is even less work & if it maybe cheaper in the long run.

I just did some tests for the first time since last week & the dosing levels are going up again to CA 144ml per day & Alk 138. MG is @ 1350, in the 3.5 months I've had this doser online I've had to increase the amounts fairly substantially almost every week, & I've yet to dial it back. I hope that maybe these new #'s may level it off for a while.
