What do you dose?
« on: February 02, 2010, 07:50:23 »
I thought it would be interesting to see what everyone doses (other than alk,cal,mag) without starting a "Don't dose what you can't test for" argument  :laugh:  What works for you?

After i won a bottle of DTs at the fragswap last year I dosed it for a few months but never really saw a visual benefit to the tank.  Other than that, its just 15-20% weekly waterchanges to replace Trace minerals and stuff.

Although i have been interested in dosing iodine recently.

I have tried Pottasium, aminos, iodine and strontium in the past and never noticed a diffrence. However did not do it more then a month so not sure if that was a good amount of time to see benfits. I have done DT's for a few months last year and noticed an increase in feather dusters, pods and sponges. It was to expensive to keep doing it and did not want the hassle of making my own so I quit.
