Aquavitro. how much should i manually dose to raise it to raise it to 1dkh every time i do WC?

Have you found a good reef calculator? If so it should tell you. I use Kalk only in my top off and don't dose so I'm not a good source on amounts to dose.

i found one but im tryin to figure out how this is going to work out everytime i do a water change. Do i dose right away. how can i make it so that there is no swing.

Bring your freshly made salt water up to the level you want before you add it to the tank.

If your weekly water change dropped the Alk, then the demand has not changed, thus your dosing does not change.

If your salt mix is low on alk, Calc, Mg - you mix it, test it, dose it, use it.

You the man Tyler! Thats just what i was about to ask. Can i dose the salt mix before adding to the tank.
