I'm going to be dosing Tropic Marin Phos-feed, if anyone is using it in a dosing pump, do you use anything to stir the solution because it's a suspension type product? If so what are you using?
 
When I was auto dosing it I used a magnetic stirrer from Amazon. Buy one that is 12V instead of 5V. They’re just a bit more powerful and I just ran it 24/7.
 
I did the same thing. Got a magnetic stir plate and dosed it that way but. In all honesty I I used it for about 8 months before I swapped to a simple potassium phosphate and my coral coloration is way better now.

I agree. I really tried to like it, but it seemed like more work than it was worth.
