Don't know if I'd trust the Dowflake, heard of some disasterous results using it. I use all pharmaceutical grade chemicals for dosing.

For Ca, I dose SeaChem Advantage Calcium during the day. And for KH, I dose SeaChem Reef Buffer at night.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.

Thats the reason i went with BRS stuff. its also cheap. For my 75 itll take me about 3 years to go through the half gallon containers of each, and i think theyre about $13 for each. even if i was keeping a lot of sps and had higher demand for each, id probably still be using it.
