Pausing Nopox

[legionofdoon]

Hello I'm going to be out of town for a few days and I'm not going to be able to dose while I'm gone. Will pausing cause me any problems? I already was decreasing the dose down until my chaeto/caluerpa started to grow again. I'm down from 9mls to 4 per day. I'll be out of town for about 4 days. Everything else is on controllers/dosers. I just don't want my house sitter to overdose.

I agree that stopping entirely is fine

Doesn’t matter one bit I do 3-4 week vacations a year and never dose during and return to same dose when I return. No Ill effects

@Randy Holmes-Farley is spot on. You'll be fine, in fact what I do is dose when I leave and have a preset dose ready for the sitter to do if needed. At best no issues and at worse, it was lower or not the best proceedure but still happened and wasn't too much.
