Can I use a Neptune DOS to dose Brightwell Reef Code Part A and B?

Is there anything I need to add to it or can I add straight to the resovoir?

Finally, while I would dose these at different times, should they always be in equal quantities?

Yes you could use a DOS to dose that product, pretty much like any 2-part. You wouldn't dilute it, just put it in dosing containers or even just put the tubes straight into the bottles.

It's generally recommended to dose any 2-part calcium/alkalinity additive in matching quantities, at least to begin with. However many people do find that as they increase their alk consumption (due to growing corals), they do not also have to increase their calcium dosing to the same extent.

So question: the instructions on the 2 part state to shake. If it’s sitting in a dosing resovoir, there won’t be much movement.

Can I still proceed?

Does anyone have any recommendations on a stand for the pump?

I don't use that product but if it is like other 2part, you just need to shake it initially. Once it is thoroughly mixed, it doesn't separate. Also to answer your initial question, you can dose any liquid from the Dos. 2part, food, additives, etc.
