Hi guys, I dose my ALK throughout the day via my DOS Ddr, i have found the sweet spot and I keep pretty stable on that, The time has come to start dosing calcium, can I dose the same time periods as my ALK?

I am using the Redsea liquid stuff!

It's better to wait 15 min or so. No definitive number but the closer you dose them together the more likely to precipitate.
 
If you have to dose them in separate areas. But diferrebt times is better.
 
I used to dose in separate areas but one right after the other. I wonder if it really matters, to what extent dosing 2 part at different times and or places would help. @Randy Holmes-Farley in your opinion is there sufficient benefit to warrant dosing both at different times and or places? Is dosing both continuously a bad idea?

I use DOS to do my alk and cal over a 24 hour span. I currently dose 9.5ml/day, and the DOS does them about at the same time. I think I read where if your dosing volume is higher it'll start spreading the time out of when it doses each.

You could also just split the time, so that cal is dosed from noon to midnight, and alk from midnight to noon, or something similar.
