How to Dose:
For a pre-mixed solution, we recommend mixing 160g (5.64oz) of Alkalinity with 2000ml (0.53gal) of RODI water. Using 38ml (4.8fl oz) of this solution will increase the KH in a 100L (100gal) aquarium by approximately 1°dKH. Please note that this is a reference value; the actual dosage may vary.
Dosage of the pre-mixed solution:
Alkalinity Tank | 0.5°dKH (°dKH) | 1°dKH (°dKH) | 1.5°dKH (°dKH) | 2°dKH (°dKH) |
100L | 19ml | 38ml | 57ml | 76ml |
200L | 38ml | 76ml | 113ml | 151ml |
500L | 94ml | 189ml | 283ml | 378ml |
25 gal | 0.6fl oz (18ml) | 1.2fl oz (36ml) | 1.8fl oz (54ml) | 2.4fl oz (71ml) |
50 gal | 1.2fl oz (36ml) | 2.4fl oz (71ml) | 3.6fl oz (106ml) | 4.8fl oz (142ml) |
100 gal | 2.4fl oz (71ml) | 4.8fl oz (142ml) | 7.2fl oz (214ml) | 9.6fl oz (285ml) |
200 gal | 4.8fl oz (142ml) | 9.6fl oz (285ml) | 14.5fl oz (428ml) | 19.3fl oz (570ml) |
Dosing Alkalinity powder directly: You can dose it in the sump or pre-mix it with aquarium water. Using 30g (0.4oz) of Alkalinity will raise the KH of a 1000L (100gal) aquarium by around 1°dKH. We recommend measuring your alkalinity at least twice a week for the best results.
