Well, for me it seems not to kick in yet.
I dose 2-3ml daily in my 200 Litre system... Nothing happened so far.
Well, my no3 went a bit down for the last 3 days and now today is back at where it was before.
how long did it take for you?

And check if there are no limiting factors, like zero nitrate and zero phosphate.
You may also check this on the matter of carbon dosing:

Updates.
The rocks for the right island arrived made by the great artist Rodrigo Calvetti (Calvetti Rocks).
It has 2 main platforms and a long cavern for my Engineer goby (he loved it and now faces the front of the tank instead of hiding).
While trying to remove my red fire from the previous island I killed it, too bad.
Now the tank is officially more SPS-focused and has the triangle-shaped layout I wished.
Pictures are not great but good for evolution purposes.
Element consumption still rocketing to the roof 105mL alk solution of Fauna Marin’s Balling Light for reference.
