I am wondering the same thing as I initially started out dosing to 4ppm daily and then went down to 1ppm daily (as per instructed by someone else on a forum). In any case, THANK YOU for the help and suggestions. Much appreciate :D

pH is currently 7.5
Temp is 85
Aerated by filter flow and an air stone
No carbon in the filter, just a bio-bag.

pH: 7.5
Water Temp: 85 degrees
Both filter...
