islandVib3s Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 I've been thinking about mixing it into my ato and down the time I'll have my kalk stirrer dump into the tank all connection to my ato. I'm thinking this sounds like a great idea instead of having another doser and reservoir setup.🤔 thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don_chuwish Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 You mean All-for-Reef? I'd be concerned about getting the right dose. I have it on dosers for two tanks and have to adjust the amounts as testing proves necessary. Daily top off amounts vary throughout the year so it would be difficult to regulate. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I'll try a really low dosage if I give it a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveZ Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 @islandVib3s the only thing you’d want in your ATO would be Kalk. Even then that’s not really the best way to dose it as ATO amounts change with weather.  best practice is dosing through a doser. Even a $30 Jebao doser that’s calibrated is better than trying to guess right amounts through ATO.  Do your tank a favor and use proven methods to keep it stable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been hooked up to my ato this whole time. Time for a change over. Thx man. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
