Kalkwasser dosing ?

[CNDReef]

Currently I’m dosing kalk at 30 ml 14 times a day to try to compensate for low night time ph. My question is would larger fewer doses work better than the smaller doses at keeping ph higher at night?
Thx Chris

Dosing more helps more, but the same volume dosed fewer times doesn't.

For reference (just as an Aside/FYI) here is whats possible using 2 part (still using the older BRS 2 part as I had a bunch stocked up). The pump is a simple BRS doser also.

@Newb73 not a fair comparison . Your chart looks like you wouldn't have low pH even without dosing 2 part . Lots of people would kill to have pH consistently over 8.
