Does anybody else experience a decrease in 2 part uptake immediately following a WC? It seems every time I do a WC it takes a while for me to dial my dosers back in because there is always a decrease in alk consumption following a WC, by the time I get the dose figured out and stable again its time for another weekly WC

No. I don’t track my parameters that close, but I do skip dosing the day after a 10% water change.

Interesting. Im going to look into setting some kind of feed mode for the doser to stop it for 24hr after a WC. appreciate your input. Worth trying for sure.
