Is the difference of 1 cup in the reactor, and 2 cups in the reactor .. the same as the difference of "replace every week" or "replace every 2 weeks"? Sorry I'm not a very good communicator so I have no idea if this makes sense or not.

I just used to test my PO4 every couple of weeks, if it stayed low all was good, if it went up a little, I'd change out the PO4. Currently I change it out about every 6 weeks or so whether it needs it or not (stopped testing). Most of my PO4 is tied up in caulerpa anyways
