brightwell replenish trace elements

[GSnake]

anyone notice brightwells instructions on the bottle for dosing is different from the description on the website? the amounts and frequency are both different.

also I wanted to dose this with my dosing pump, but it says to shake it up before using. would it be ok without shaking? i faintly remember the spokesperson of brightwell saying it can be dosed with a doser cause its chelated? it could have been another one of their products though....im looking for that video again.
suggestions? thanks

I’d always invert the bottle a few time before dosing, but that’s just me.

If it is clear without settled solids, mixing is not needed. If you has suspended solids that settle out but that might somehow be useful to dose (possible), then mixing may be needed.

ill dump some of the bottle in a glass today and check

I would say it's safe to dose through a pump, and no shaking needed. There's no distinct settlements or other particles in solution . It's been resting for an hour

Any potential interactions with kalkwasser if mixed together / dosed from the same brute

I would not do that. Many metals are not soluble at high pH
