Back when I used dolomite, I could never get gH/kH to raise to the level I want.
On Mar 12, I added 1.5 cups of crush coral in the filter. The water was tested at 3 gH and 3 kH that day. This morning (Mar 15), I tested the water again and it was to at 6 gH and 6 kH.
This is for the 75G. We are not talking a small amount of water.
At c$ 12.76 for 15lb bag, it sure beat using liquid cal or equilibrium to bring gH up.
I am going to experiment with Mg to water ratio and dosing it as a form of daily nutrient.
I will be mixing a batch up where I can add the same amount as plantex dose per day. ie. If I dose 5 ml plantex I would be dosing 5 ml of Mg.
I might combine the micro and Mg into 1 bottle. Does anyone see any side effect in doing so?
