  1. OK; sure, I understand that the dosing rate will not be very consistent. Thanks for your help. Incidentally, I read on the SeaChem website that their Reef Phytoplankton has a specific gravity between 1.0 to 1.1, but they don't say exactly what the salt content is. What I found more worrying is that it has a pH of 3.5 to 4.0.

  2. No its not the same. You dont have control over how much phyto you dose with an ato. It just depends on your rate of evaopration. On a hot day you dose more etc. dilution of that one bottle again depends on the size of your ato reservoir. With a doser you chose to dose 5 ml everyday for example...

  3. All marine phyto are grown and sold in saline water. So dosing using ATO will increase salinity and defeat the very purpose of an ATO. If you want to dose get a cheap doser. Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

  4. Probably will not recommend putting anything in ATO, these are dead phyto, sure there is preservatives but once u drop inside ATO the preservatives likely is very much diluted unlike being kept in the bottle. Most likely will foul ur ATO water. Just manual dose, i dont think even if u miss 1 or 2 feedings ur corals will not mind. Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

  5. If your coral does not grow much, and you dose too much of any supplements, you will run into Kh Ca and Mg problems. All for reef is an easy to use product. Once you dial in your dosing, you can keep Kh within a very narrow range. The product is not the issue, the amount added is.
