New Dosing Recommendation

[Marc Daniels]

Hey gang-

I was out of town for almost two weeks, and I didn't have the confidence in my "tank sitter" to have them do all of my dosing. Please note, this is the same person that "forgot" to feed a 17" moray for 2.5 weeks...and the first thing out of his mouth when I got home was "a couple of your fish seem to have disappeared". Ya, $300 worth of fish!

So anyways, I was at the end of my third week. My zeoreactor was not shutdown while I was away, but nothing was dosed and my stones did not get pumped. My dosing was as follows;
1)1 ltr. carbon
2)2 1/2 ltrs zeolites in a filter at a flow rate of ~250gph.
3)Bak/Food7 6 drops each daily for the 1st 2wks., then 2x's/wk.
4)dose .25ml Start2 2x's/day. It is not necessary to turn off the skimmer when just dosing Start2.
5)dose AAHC 5 drops daily;dose C-V 10 drops daily

What should I do to get back into my rhythm?

Also, while I was away I stopped by to see Eric at Fragfarmer.com (super nice guy and a sweet shop) and picked up K Balance, SpurME and Spur2. What should my starting doses be for these? I was going to start with the K Balance, and then add the other two at 4 day intervals. My adjusted tank volume is 270g. Calcium 420, Mag 1350, dkh 7.8, everything else is fine as well and stable.

Hi Marc, assuming you have some time before these zeolites are exchanged:

1)dose Bak/Food7 for 3 days, then 2x's/wk. With new zeolites, for the 1st two wks. these are dosed every other day, then 2x's/wk.
2)resume Start2 daily as before
3)dose AAHC & C-V as before
4)dose K-B 1ml/25g net for 3 days, then 1ml/100g net daily
5)dose Spur-ME 5ml/25g net once a wk.
6)Dose Spur2as per the ZEOvit guidelines[start with ~7ml as a starting dosage]
