Dosing what? How much are you having to add daily? You have to get the levels to where you want it and then figure how much is being used daily then add that daily.

i would start with 5 drops per 10 gallons. test this with 5g first. you want the ammonia to be 2-3ppm through the cycle process. you’re done when the ammonia goes to 0 within 8-12 hours.

The old version of Dr Tim's called for 5 ml per 100g, their new formula calls for 20 mil per 100g to get your ammonia to 2ppm. So I would say you need to calibrate the specific solution you are using, then determine what level of ammonia you want to achieve.
