Thanks! I think that buying by the kilo is excessive so ill probably stick to cascade pond supply. I have a 150 tank so I figure about 7.5g per dose X 3 doses. Does that sound right?

Sorry, I don't know the dose for corals. Seawater makes it less effective for fish due to the high pH affecting its uptake. I imagine that corals and anemones, being open to the water, would not have that issue, but I don't know for certain. Your dose is around 13 mg/l. The range for freshwater is 3 to 10 ppm, for marine fish it is 200 ppm, I think that is too high for a DT.

I have heard on many of the interviews that ACI along with others have an article coming on Coral magazine with their treatment recipe for OA this coming month.

Heard that too, hope this is the stn solution. I really think I struggle with bacteria in my tank. I added 15 lbs of live rock and the whole thing started improving but has since regressed with some coral loss. ICP test results by the weekend I hope just to rule out any other issues.
