how much component 1+2+3+ do you dose? I recently started aquaforest and want to see how much everyone uses.

Correct me if my math is wrong but according to my calculations I need to dose 250 ml into 300 gal to raise dkh by 0.5?? That seems like a lot
 
I can't remember what I started at but it was in the neighborhood of 15-25ml. Now I'm dosing about 60ml into a Red Sea Reefer 170 (43gal) mixed reef. I've dosed as high as 106ml when there was a ton of coraline algae which can suck up the alk and cal super fast.

After a dose of fluconozole (bryopsis) and cleaning the power heads cleared out much of the coraline. Consumption dropped faster than I could compensate and is now taking a while for me to find the new sweet spot.
 
seems about right, i dose 145 ML in my 55 gallon for 2dkh per day. aquarforest is half as potent as most products. but you can mix your own which would probably be cheaper for you. although with 300 gallons you should probably go with a calcium reactor
 
In time I will go to a calcium reactor most of my SPS is still small. I'm doing about 0.5dkh per day. It just seemed like a huge amount to dose
 
I am dosing 40ml per day of 1 and 2 and staying stable in 29g. I have an issue with 3 and cant keep my Mag down so i am dosing 5ml just to keep something going in...
