Before I got dosers I would manually dose calcium in the morning and alkalinity at night using equal parts. Once a week I would test, and add whatever was needed to balance out. If something was too high I would skip dosing that one for the next day or two.

I'm not following you Myka. Why is ours complicated? I basically do exactly the same as you. Dosers on timers and check levels once a week. Top up manually if required.
