I just started dosing on my 25g and was questioning whether its worth it. its a micro pump x1 and dosing fusion 2 seachem, going 0.5ml per day. not sure if this was worth the price tag (probably not) but, it can't hurt can it? thanks guys

I don’t dose anything in my nano and if I do it’s manually. Regular water changes and testing regularly removes the need to dose in a nano unless there’s an issue.

I stopped dosing All for Reef in my 20g because my corals and everything was struggling. Maybe it was a trace overdose…
I started dosing only part A+B of Tropic Marin original balling and doing 10% wc every week. My tank looks better then ever and everything is thriving.

I dont say its a no go - but I personally had issues in such a small tank. My results are way better with only 2 part without traces.
Keep it simple was my key and I first had to learn it from long time reefers.

I dose my 13.5g nano weekly by hand (10ml). Wen I go away I just dose in advance :)
I don't think auto is necessary or worthwhile unless you're dosing 20ml each Alk/Ca a day.
