ErikS November 18, 2013 Share November 18, 2013 (edited) Well that's kind of where they made their bones = they're fine. They are not however the cheapest game in town. For example you can bake baking soda & get the PH increasing ALK additive, DIY is cheaper. I use them, it's just not that expensive. I get a jug of each & it lasts a long time. 2 cups/gallon for ALK & 2.5 cups/gallon for CA = doesn't take much. 1 gallon = 3,785.411 ml so you can see if you're dosing around 100 or so per day that's 37 days for each gallon batch. It's relatively cheap & effective = why it's popular. Edited November 18, 2013 by ErikS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am pretty sure i will buy at least one wrong material.. Well if you go to the documents section @ Bulk Reef they'll have a calculator & pretty much everything you'll need to start with 2 part dosing. Calc is here - http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/reef-calculator Videos & instructions are here - http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/video/ The most confusing part of the whole deal is figuring out which of their kits is the most cost effective. I have all the dosing pumps & containers so I just buy 1 gallon Soda Ash & Calcium Cloride which lasts me 6 months or more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nova423 November 19, 2013 Share November 19, 2013 I just buy ESV Bionic. Yes it's more expensive but its simple and already comes in a jug +1 when I started dosing Bionic my reef started to take off. Or I thought it was, until I began using zeovit adds (no reactor). Then it really began gaining steam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
