Hi, long time reefer. Used to run a 300g old school SPS dominant tank ( till a catastrophic seam blow out AGA-DD). Back in the game after retirement and move south, now have a RS S1000 (265 total volume).
Used to run a calcium reactor and had Randy’s recipie in 5 g water jugs for when things were out of sync. Now I’m doing the whole dosing thing with RS dosers in my mixed reef( with plans for majority SPS. I’m using 65ml of RS foundation b liquids per day. ( and 35 ml of foundation A fwiw) At $100 for a 5l jug that lasts just 2.5 months, it’s getting costly. So I’d like to switch to Baking soda again. Looking for a dosing equivalent of RS F-b to the baked baking soda recipe once in solution. Also I recall there would always be stuff at the bottom of the containers, so I would shake before using. With dosing what is there to worry about with clogged dosers or a stronger concentration at the bottom of the container? I suppose I could just put a maxi jet in a 5g bucket of solution to keep it stirred? Thanks for your thoughts!
