How much ELOS Amino Acid are you dosing?

[BillyC]

Looking for different opinions. Please let me know how heavily stocked you are and water volume.

I dosed about 2 drops of pro skimmer and 2 drops of AA. When dosing the AA make sure to dose the pro skimmer.

 

[BillyC]

I've never heard that before. Is there a reason? And you dose 2 drops in how big of a system?

 

[samuelkl]

His sig says 60 gallons. With some live rock and sand, maybe 45-50 actual gallons?

 

[karsseboom]

I dose 2 drops in my 60g with 20g sump. Anymore than that and I get massive algae blooms. That stuff is very strong so take it easy.

 

[BillyC]

Based on your dosing how much do you recommend I dose into a 120g sps tank?

 

[karsseboom]

I would do 7 drops a day. Watch your algae close, this stuff is very dangerous.

Do you have fish? If so, how often, and how much do you feed?

 

[SPotter]

My twv is about 480g and I have 15 fish and good amount of sps/lps. I dose 5ml per week and do it after I do my wc. Its definitely less than what elos suggests but I'd rather dose not enough than over doing it and having problems.

i only have 3 fish in mine, almost 300 gallon volume,feed one a week maybee

I'd suggest feeding the fish every day. After you've done that for a while, if you feel your corals still need a little extra nourishment, start dosing AA's at about 1/4 the recommended dosage and build from there.
