00W's AIO Smorgasbord

I have been researching and some say adding it to the ATO water is good others say not to do that because it could over dose it and then some say a slow dripper is the best way.

Depends on how much you need daily. Slow dripper is better because it doesn't affect your pH as readily. ATO can over dose or under dose depending on evaporation.

Thank you I was thinking the same thing but wanted others thoughts.

Keep in mind, slow dripper also isn't a set amount. You might drip too much or too little and they tend to eventually plug up.

Now I am off to bed it's way past my normal bedtime LOL Goodnight everyone!

Using a doser you can control the amount but you'll need a big dosing container.

So testing often would be a good idea right?

If you do Kalk, it's probably just as easy (and way cheaper) to use Mrs Wages Pickling Salt.

And it seems to work pretty well on aiptasia!

Maybe I will wait until I get a doser to start using it. I have an extra 10 gallon tank I could use for a dosing container if you think that would work?

How do you use it on aiptasia?

Good night Amanda.

Mix it thick like a paste, suck it into a syringe, stick the syringe needle into the mouth of the Aiptasia, and squirt .

Boiling water works good too but it can also kill corals that are too close by.

I will try to remember this if I ever get Aiptasia.
