Anybody using Calcium Chloride and Soda Ash from Bulk Reef Supply?

If your tank is heavily stocked that seems pretty normal to me.

Yeah? Ok, thanks Greg. It just seemed high to me for a 90g.
Us reefers are weird. We want our corals to grow and when they do we question the amount of Ca and Alk used.

That's what I use, was dosing 100 ml on the 300 and was maintaining levels fine. going to up it tho as growth has slowed.

I have a 55 gallon with many frags, a couple of small colonies,2 mid sized clams, & I'm @ 57 ml of each per day. I was surprised when I first found this kept my paras. stable for a week. It's reassuring to see others having the same questions.

Lance how much of each do you mix up with a gallon of RO?

2.5 cups of calcium chloride and 2 cups of soda ash dosed via Drew's Dosers.

Ya that's pretty much the standard RHF recipe. I guess you just have healthy corals with good uptake. I don't personally dose 2 part, I just use it if I need to tweak things so I can't give you a comparison. I am a kalk guy for the time being until my corals get big enough that kalk isn't enough and then I will have to decide either reactor or 2 part.
