Curious, did a search and no results.

41 ml each of 2 part and 350 ml kalk daily with ~40 gallons TVW
 
what others use compared to tank size. I read BRS had a tank that 2 part became limited and ‘crashed’ because over overgrowth. Curious the highest levels of 2 part use with tank size.
Is that even possible, for 2 part to becomes limited?
Maybe Kalk!!!

You can always add more 2 part…
Maybe it becomes tiresome to mix 5 gal each day, but one can mix larger batches…

Yes, more than just 2 part, but the over all density of the coral in the DT, etc..it was a small tank.

Not sure how this is even useful. Every tank is different as far as consumption so how much one person doses in x gal TTV is going to be different than another tank of x gal TTV because consumption rates will likely be different between the two tank. In my tanks I'm always having to adjust my dose amount depending on coral growth.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding the question?
 
Most reef tanks will use something between 0 and 4 dKH per day, most often 0.5 to 2.5 dKH per day, regardless of the methods used. There’s no daily limit on a two part.
