Red sea foundation B ( alk) powder 1/3 strength ?

[pmiggy]

Hi all,
i have been researching all i can on the RS foundation B powder.
it says once mixed to stock amount its 1/3 the strength of the liquid.
does this mean that i does 3 times i would if i were using the liquid mix?
for example the " mix reef recipe " suggest that on a " reefer 425" i would does ALK 32.3ML/Day.

I don't see anything in that link about the concentration of their different products, but you should dose an alk supplement based on measured alkalinity, not a predetermined plan for all tanks.

That said, an alk supplement that is 1/3 as strong needs 3 times as much to boost alk the same, yes.
