Exciting time! Dont worry man. AFR is so simple and a pleasure to dose. I use it myself. Readings of ALK and calcium will take a few days to register on your test kit, so start with the minimum required dose everyday and test in a week. Then dial up or down the dosage to suite your uptake and test again in a week.

Thank you I appreciate it โ€ฆ I will take it slow and dose up or down when needed ๐Ÿ™

Do you have to add Balling B to keep alk up ? My alk always lag and I have to supplement for it but the calcium and magnesium are on point

I do. My Alk is lagging just a bit behind the calcium and magnesium. I remember watching a BRS video of Lou Ekas saying that this could happen.

Exactly. I seen the same video

Agreed AFR is great. Start slow and you can ramp up as needed from testing results

Copy that thank you bro ๐Ÿ™

Haha I feel you! Getting those dosing ratios right can be nerve wracking but once you dial it in your corals will definitely thank you with some serious color pop and growth. That stirrer setup looks solid though!

Yea man I have a fox coral started shrinking when I tested my water I said nope itโ€™s time to dose โ€ฆ that set up is super cheap Amazon ..that container is the actual dose container ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃdrop the magnetic pill and set on go

Haha thatโ€™s awesome! Sometimes the cheap setups surprise you the most. Hope your fox coral perks back up soon! Just gotta
