So I recently set up some dosing lines for DIY iron and manganese following the guidelines here.

I’ve been dosing around x3 the amount Randy doses as I’ve seen it has no ill effects and it gets depleted fast.

Anyways, my question is, I have been dosing to a pretty low flow part of the Refugium; is that an issue? Or will the ions find itself around the tank?

I have a separate Refugium and sump (sump outdoors, Refugium under DT in stand) and the dose is in the stand so it’s been dripping into the side of the Refugium
 
I’ve been using the manganese gluconate and fergon tablet DIY recipes

Those will stay dissolved and distribute well. :)
