so i don't have much to go on but i am getting a ICP soon but roughly for a 90 gallon tank what is the safe dosing range for it i found this on google for manganese

General Dosing Guidelines
Without specific test results, it is difficult to give an exact daily dose. However, general product guidelines suggest dosing a small amount very frequently.
  • Maximum Safe Daily Dose: The maximum recommended safe daily dose is generally 0.5 ml of supplement per 100 liters of water (approximately 0.5 ml per 26 US gallons).
  • For a 90-gallon tank: A 90-gallon (approx. 340 liter) tank's maximum safe daily dose would be around 1.7 ml per day (0.5 ml per 100L * 3.4 units of 100L).
  • Split the dose: It is advised to split the total daily dose into smaller, more frequent portions throughout the day to protect marine animals from stress and prevent the manganese from precipitating out of the water instantly.

does this sound about right? 1.7ml a day? i was thinking lower it and go 1.2ml a day will be using reef zelements manganese
 
Either way seems ok. Maybe a slight preference for every 2 days.
this is what the bottle of manganese says that i have ordered

For reference, dosing 1 ml of this manganese supplement increases the manganese concentration by 2 µg/l in 100 litres of aquarium water, providing precise control over trace element balance.

Yes, I looked it up for potency prior to giving advice.
