2 part dosing

Hello, Just a question of curiosity. Assuming a set Alkalinity target would there be any difference in pH between using Kalk, All for Reef or 2 part ? Or would they all settle at the same pH level. I know there can be limitations to the amount of Kalk one could use based on evaporation and...

Hello. Just curious if this seems a bit much. 300gal dd tank 2 small acro frags, 5 head frog spawn,5 head torch, 4” ellegance, three head duncan, 5” favia. It sems like i am dosing alot to maintain levels or is this normal?

I dose B-Ionic 2 Part and have been for nearly a year, yesterday I only dosed part 1 and forgot to dose part 2. Does that mean I double up on calcium today? Do I just dose my regular schedule? Does this cause an imbalance in the system by missing part 2 one time?

Scenario: I have one free outlet left in my system. My max Par at the highest point of my aquascape is 210. My tank consumes X amount of Calcium, alkalinity, magnesium, etc. And while .08 Phosphate and 20.3 Nitrate isn't terrible, every water change to reduce them resets Cal, Alk, etc.

I read a great article talking about 2 part dosing. My tank is a 150 and 4 months old. It will eventually be a mixed reef but right now it is soft coral dominated I guess. I am not sure if I learned a lesson with SPS as I had a few die. It may be because the tank is new or that I have yet...

Hi everyone, I just switched from a calcium reactor to the DOS a couple months ago since it’s easier to control remotely while away at school. I am currently using 2 part B-Ionic. My current dosing schedule is: Alk; 25 ml, over a 24 hour window, with a range of 0.20 dKH, a limit of 50%, and a...

Hey everyone, Is it possible to dose alk and cal once a week say at the end of the week instead of 10% water changes once a week?

Hey guys quick question, I tested my tank alk and cal for 5 days to see the consumption over that time period. And I really only saw a swing of .6 dkh at the most. I’m thinking of dosing B Ionic 2 part to keep it stable. My tank is a 90 gallon softie dominated system and I feel like the bi...

Hey R2R members, I'm going to be buying and setting up a dosing pump soon and was wondering something. When I run the tubing into dosing container/ 2 part bottle etc. won't the bottom of the bottle have all the condensed elements? As in, on the bottle it says shake before use, but if it's...

Hi All, I just received my first ICP test results and wanted opinions. My alk is low. I'm already dosing BRS 2 part, so I'll have to adjust my alk dosing. Here's a link to my results: //lab.atiaquaristik.com/share/936658fd2cf8e25f178f I also attached a pdf if that's more convenient. What would...
