Best I can say to the op is to mix per directions in the thread, but make a 100 ml solution if using 500 mg tablets and 50ml solution is using 250 mg tablets. This will allow for easier dosing, as 500 to 50 and then doing a tank that size is only .7 ml of solution. Which will work just fine, but 500 to 100 allows for less decimals beyond 10ths and is almost spot on to 1.4ml per dose for the tank being only 15 gallons of water or 56.78 liters.

Also, it will not hurt to do 1.5 ml per dose, for ease of measurement.

I suggest treating after lights out and if no improvement in a 2 doses or so of treatment, to move to dosing daily for 7 days. Also, if things start to decline, you can dose double the dose for .250 mg per liter without issue in my experience.
