Best Time to Dose AA?

[liverock27]

Is there a better time of the day to dose Amino Acids to allow your corals to get the most out of them? When the lights first go out, before they turn on in the morning, middle of the day, etc, etc?

I have read recommendations on when to dose Cal and Alk and wanted to see if AAs were the same.

Thanks.

Maybe about 30mins to an hour after the lights go out...

Don't mean to hijack the thread but now you have me wondering. LOL I started dosing two part about a month ago. Had no idea time would make a difference. Can you enlighten me?

I am not sure if this is the golden rule on 2 part, but I spoke with customer service at BRS and they recommended dosing ALK after your lights go out and then dosing CAL 8 hours later. They didn't give me a specific time for Mg, but just said not to dose it at the same time as CAL or ALK.

I have also read this on R2R.
