Dosing, why are you doing this?
There seems to be some obsession about dosing tanks in this hobby, as a freshman to this hobby some years ago I was taught to dose calcium ,magnesium,strontium and the rest......but I need to know why ?
The burning question is why so many hobbyists dose their tanks blindly without understanding their tanks real requirements, is it poor advice from an lfs recomending you need to have elevated levels of KH, Mg, Ca...... Why do I have these products in my cupboard, amongst all my test kits?
Surely a high quality salt mix is going to take care ...or furthermore, a calcium reactor will take care of my aquariums needs?
Ditch the dosing pumps.....What happened to the calcium reactor days?
