Yes, just be sure it is not baking powder. Dissolve it in a little pure fresh water.

This calculator shows how much is needed;

Do you have a suggestion or calculator for afr?

My alk is pretty much to my target currently with the right test results leaving me buffer room if I mess up and it climbs

Or should I raise my alk higher?
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
