I am considering giving Korallen-Zucht Coral System 4 part a try. Since all four parts call for the same weekly dose, can they be mixed/stirred into a single dosing container? Will doing so render it ineffective, or would it be ok?

Do you know what is in them - like the actual forms of the elements? KZ usually does not say. If you don't know, then I would worry about precipitation and/or the elements combining to form something unintended.

I would think that if it were possible to put them all into one, then they would have done it since this could be a nice marketing piece.

As noted above, I do not know what chemical forms are in them, and I’ll also note that if a manufacturer makes the product less convenient by requiring multiple bottles, there’s likely a reason for that.

But it might be ok. If you mix and get a solid precipitate, it’s not ok to mix them.

if you do that you cannot control which elements are being dosed. Is system 2 is heavier than system 3 you’ll end up dosing way more of one than the other
