ClarkiiClown Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 Ok- I know that dosing kalk is very beneficial to your tank. Im a kalk newbie so bear with me. I want to use a DIY dosing pump- my question is how do you determine how much to dose? I know it is dripped slowly into the sump at night but how do you determine how much to drip? Can someone guide me? Link to comment
skipm Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 You generally dose enough to match your evaporation rate. Since the nanocubes have little evaporation I would just use a 2 part calcium/alkalinity additive (I prefer B ionic). JMO, Skip Link to comment
ClarkiiClown Posted March 22, 2005 Author Share Posted March 22, 2005 OK- I figure I have just a couple of ounces of evap every coupld of days. Link to comment
RandyO Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 couple ounces every couple days? 1 ounce a day?? My 24G is good for almost a pint a day easy. Link to comment
ClarkiiClown Posted March 24, 2005 Author Share Posted March 24, 2005 About 4 ounces a day actually. It seems to evaporate more if I have my cassette installed. Link to comment
