Works for exactly what, as differentiated from what is the question nobody appears to want to nail down,How can we scientifically demonstrate that the Bolus method works?

No it’s not. You’ve misinterpreted what they’ve said again.
They didnt say that pure bicarb has the same effects as halogen loaded bicarb.
That’s already all over the internet….. you just need to open your eyes and do your own research, which you don’t want to do, so unfortunately, I doubt you’ll ever keep up…….
Maybe this show what I mean better. Nominal value 7.8Can you clarify where you are seeing evidence of a delay in alk meaurement of a dose that is more than either mixing times or fluid in the lines running to the machine time? (I do not know those times for your system) It's a little tricky interpreting the areas you have circled in blue where alk consumption is happening simultaneous to dosing (i.e., it takes a decent amount of dosing just to stop the alk decline), and where alk measurement may not take place frequently enough to see the exact shape of the curves.
I have thought of two things in the past - keep the pH stable around 8.15 with help of a pH managed CO2 injection system and the one you suggest. But my problem is that I have a high bio load system with a lot of organic and hence a lot of bacteria producing CO2 during night. I do not want to dose kalk but I have thought of NaOH. I can make a system there I dose NaOH up to a given pH during night. However - I would also affect alk this way. My system is build on an automatic rise or decrease of the alk dose from Core7 3a+b (I suspect it is Na2CO3) I have a reversed refugium but its not large enough to consume all CO2 produced.I've always wanted someone to do a reverse experiment where pH is higher at night, and see where most alk demand takes place, but so far I've not see one.
Here is my tank:I think you’re insulting the intelligence of some world class aquarists with this basic nonsense.
They are far ahead of this already if you care to open your horizons a little.
Sorry to say, the lack of insight here is becoming farcical.
Before me move in, show us your tank photos please, so we know you’re credible.
None of you have yet come forwards
With this which tells its own story……
Hi - you continue to answer posts directly quoting and responding to other people, and worse deflect in the process.That’s already all over the internet….. you just need to open your eyes and do your own research, which you don’t want to do, so unfortunately, I doubt you’ll ever keep up…….
Does being "world class" evaluate one's claims, especially those that appear to contradict known science, and or seam fantastical, beyond scrutiny? There is something farcical here, but it is not the people looking to verify claims that appear to be (at best) creative marketing that stretches the truth.I think you’re insulting the intelligence of some world class aquarists with this basic nonsense.

42 pages in and feel like listening to some Abbot and Costello

Sometimes I struggle to recognize when you're joking around or being serious... Is this a pay on words related to the video we were joking around or not?I don’t know and I don’t give a darn.
Seems out of left field for you Bean. For somebody who doesn't give a darn, you sure seem to care enough to provide your unsolicited, irrelevant response(twice). I'm a fan of your vast expertise, but lately you seem to provide that less and less. Instead we get asinine comments that serve no other purpose than widening the gap between you and others. Don't forget, this is the internet, people are allowed to talk to each other and you don't have to be between every word. Please excuse me if I'm taking this wrong. Much respectYou asked who’s more entertaining than what. I told you, I don’t know and I do t give a darn.
Yes, correct.OK, lets all cool off a bit.
Regardless of what that means for who said what, FM clearly states that:
"The basic principle is that we want a blast of light at the very beginning of the photoperiod, this is possible due to the extra halogens that are dosed with the Bolus dose, these act to protect the coral from the extra light."
Thus, the "bolus method" being described by FM IS NOT simple bicarbonate bolus dosing, but also bolus dosing of other things.
No.Ah now I get it, you get your chemistry knowledge based on pretty photos.
No.
But since you’re getting personal.
I get it with the skills I attained from my medical degree, followed by my PhD, followed by my post doctoral diploma and my higher surgical degree.
It all helps. It allows me to understand this thread and your approach for example.
So do pretty photos.
