Easyreefs easysps, using it for 6 weeks now and im happy with it.Is there any liquid coral food that I can use with doser without refrigeration?

My corals where struggling and i didn't know why. I'm running full triton method( with a bit smaller refugium) and i don't have any die off from my macro algae. parameters where good. Really wanted a mandarin dragonet so i dosed phytoplankton every day to boost by copepod population. Did it at night with some Reef-roids. The result : more copepods and a lot of phosphates. So wanted to switch to something else, and the convenience of having my phytoplankton and coralfood hooked on a doser is great, don't have to do a thing only to increase my dosage weekly.I thought the fish provided the daily coral food?
You guys are dosing daily coral food supplements? How much? I hand dose every 3 days or so but have to watch phosphate also.
I dose phytoplankton by hand daily but how much actual coral supplements do you dose daily for your tank excluding phytoplankton.My corals where struggling and i didn't know why.

Lots of copepods

Even corals that had no growth the last months started to grow, can see them feeding when the food is dosed.
6 ml through the day 1.5 ml every 6 hoursI dose phytoplankton by hand daily but how much actual coral supplements do you dose daily for your tank excluding phytoplankton.
And no phosphate issues? I know dosing red sea AB everyday would probably require counter dosing with Nopox as part of their supplement regimen.6 ml through the day 1.5 ml every 6 hours
I use gfo, change it out once a month. I always feed my fish to much, masstick and half a nori sheet every other day and 4 cubes frozen a mix of mysis, artemia and krill the other day and some dry food sometimes. Have to dose nitrate 0.5 ppm daily, no carbon dosing.And no phosphate issues? I know dosing red sea AB everyday would probably require counter dosing with Nopox as part of their supplement regimen.
Gotcha, makes sense you are countering the phosphate buildup from dosing with GFO. I'm trying to remain as free as possible with chemicals in my sump and system.I use gfo, change it out once a month.

To be honest i have to dose more nitrate lately.
Cannot find it in CanadaEasyReefs EasyBooster and SpsEvo. This combo feeds the whole system and requires no refrigeration.
