With only 48-views and two replies in over a week in the Controllers Forum, I figured I would run it up the flagpole in this section.......

I just install a AWC Doser and trying to get a feel for what others are doing with their AWC setup in regard to how many days per week and what percentage weekly water change you're shooting for? I was thinking daily, but then I thought maybe 2-3 times per week and larger percentage each time would attack nitrates and phosphates more, similar to weekly manual WC's.

Currently I am manually changing roughly 10-15% weekly.

Any and all help is welcomed....many thanks in advance!

-Happy reefing

I do 1% each day. But you are right, the larger less frequent changes will attack nitrates and phosphates better. I was looking for stability.
