Zach0225 Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 Has anyone ever used any of Randy Holmes Farley diy for ammonia dosing and Alkalinity? I find my tank low with nitrates and wanted to start dosing ammonium bicarbonate for my corals and figure next step is dosing alk for corals and I like diy and saving money….: if not then fritz rpm it is for dosing 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krux Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 I can’t help with the dosing as I use Brightwell, but @Lexinverts might use the RHF recipe? Otherwise I can come feed your fish, my skilled hand keeps my nitrates too high most of the time 😇 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LavenderTi Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 (edited) I currently use the RHF recipe that’s ammonium bicarbonate on my coral QT tank. Currently at 4 mL/day on a 20 gallon that is fishless. Start slow and adjust based on nitrate levels. I wouldn’t change much quicker than every 2 weeks.
