Hello DIY'ers, I'm testing this for myself now. Total water volume is 135 gallons. I dosed 1/2 tablespoon into a cup of water, mixed up the slurry and poured it all into my sump at once.
For filtration I'm using a large skimmer and a set of seven 10 micron filter socks. It's been less than an hour and the cloudiness is subsiding quite a bit but its still too soon to tell. One thing I do notice is that the particles that were in the water column in the first place show signs of the calcium carbonate adhering to them. They are now all white looking and easier to see. Hoping for good results as others have reported and will my own report results tomorrow.
Last nights test gave overall positive results. Tank looked clearer this morning and there is nothing negative to report. In examining the socks, there is more gunk in them than usual. One nights dose isn't going to change anyone's life but I can see why others have touted its possible long term benefits. I'm going to continue to dose a small amount every couple of nights using an automated doser/controller.
Problem with the doser is , you’ll need to shake it before dosing every time. It settles out in the container you have it in
Oh not hurt at all I have both versions but after buying the kz coral snow I realized that it's not the same stuff and there's no way to tell without getting specific ingredients that KZ uses. Btw they have another version of coral snow now which is called coral snow plus.
There is a handful, pretty much every supplement can be DIY, but I would suggest you start another topic to get better answers.Is there anything else out there that is DIY on the cheap but I'm paying $Texas for?
TheirWhere is everyone dosing this in there tank?
It just means it is less pure. Should not really change anything, but you don't know what the few percent less will be. I personally would not worry about it, though, even if it were something toxic you're using so little of it along with a protein skimmer that it won't affect anything.
