I just started dosing KNO3 today for similar reasons as above, some colors are pale in some corals (mainly the SPS) and the nitrates and phosphates are undetectable. I had been dosing NoPoX which I cut down significantly. I will probably start another thread as a log of the attempt with pictures but in the process of preparing for the dosing I created the attached spreadsheet which is calculating concentrations of NO3 in solution and after dosing. Please @twilliard and @Randy Holmes-Farley could you give it a quick check and make sure I am not making any mistakes here? I think my math is correct because after using it I dosed 2cc of my solution and expected 0.2ppm which I think I saw on the red sea nitrate test. I will keep on checking because my eyes are not very good at this either haha
In the meantime, if you find any problems on the sheet please let me know because I think it is a useful calculator that others might find interesting. Thanks for all the hard work twilliard!
Wow, thank you for taking the time to come up with and share the calculator/spreadsheet! It is super helpful, and it's great that you included the various types of nitrate that people use to dose
Awesome!
