Calcium and dKh dropping rapidly!

Dosing can be as simple or as complicated as you want to make it. I just measure out the correct amount of alk and cal ( I use the bulk stuff) and slowly pour it into a high flow area every morning

Heard that the easiest thing that a reefer can do is crash through dosing :P So I am actually a bit skeptical about it

Your right, be careful while dosing. My tank just crashed from overdosing alk. I'm scared to dose again now after losing all my sps. Just going to try regular water changes now and see how it goes

I have never crashed a tank from dosing and I have been dosing tanks for the last 13 yrs.
I have had snow storms from too much (It takes a huge water change to bring things back into balance after that) I have had it precipitate out on power heads and heaters (wasteful) from adding a little bit too much but never a crash and I really do just dump it in every morning
