I only recently bought an auto doser.
Started mixing my own A.F. Components 1+, 2+ & 3+ which includes Components Strong (minor & trace elements).

Only other thing I dose (by hand) is A.F. Amino mix. And I dose that well after the lights starts ramping down because aminos + full light causes algae growth on the glass.

No ,I keep my reefs at 8dkh. Otherwise I follow everything else. I really like the Red Sea program. Easy to follow gr8 success . Zeovit program also works but not as straightforward as Red Sea program.

Kalk with some vinegar added to boost bacteria and increase the Kalk.

Hand dose BRS Reef Chili + KZ Coral Vitalizer every 2 days, I believe it protects my corals by providing them with food when my nutrients are too low. It also helps keep my nutrients from dropping too low in the first place. I dose at night after lights out. I'll ocassionally throw in some phytoplankton or zooplankton as well.

I also hand dose potassium occasionally to raise it back to 400ppm, because low potassium can reduce coloration and even cause widespread stn/rtn.

Acropower and Reef Trace for the last couple of years. Food soaked in Vitality or VitamrinC

Currently just dosing Calcium and Alkalinity.

 

[Monkichi]

Long time kalk only user, started doing that in the late 90's. Following along here as I am investigating dosing for a new tank. Currently manually adding BRS 2 part (instead of kalk, just wanted to try it) and mag., but looking into dosing pumps and possibly a carbon source.

I'm dosing NOPOX, Red Sea Reef Energy A and B. I test and dose TLF Potassium weekly. I will be switching to Red Sea Potassium shortly. I also dose TLF Iron weekly. I was dosing TLF Iodine weekly but when I got my Triton results back, my Iodine was way to high so I stopped.

I dose everything by hand.

 

[BlennyKravitz]

Auto dosing 3 part 12x a day... plus 10mL Red Sea ABCD. once a day. Water change 1G every 12 hours.

Manually dose 20mL each of Reef Energy (because refrigerated) every morning and 5-10mL NoPox at night..

 

[Sir Chris]

The given 3. Then strontium. Molybdenum. Iodine. Basically when it’s been awhile on water change. I will b dosing fluncosante in a few days when my rainbow acan plumps a bit more.

 

[Dilan Patel]
