That is a perfect place to add it. Try to add it into where the water flows in.

This will all depend on how much food you put into the tank and your fish load. You will probably have to "dial it in" a bit. Without knowing your bioload I would start off with diluting the Foz Down by 75%(add a 240ml bottle to 750ml of ro water) and then adding 1 ml four times per day. If you notice algae growth(based on your prior experience with GFO) you could increase it. My recommendation would be to use a testkit or a Hanna meter and dose based on the readings. Eventually you will know how much phosphate your tank produces and you can dose accordingly.

Cheers,
Tim

Or if Tim is willing to ship to Calgary (in case its not available), maybe we can split the shipping I wouldn't mind using it so that I don't have to buy a reactor and pump.

Too much talk of filter socks. Probably not a good product for me.

Seems like more work than GFO.
