I just found out my potassium is 320 and would like to bring it up to 380-400.

Would Red Sea Reef Colors B, Zeovit regular K balance or K balance strong be best? I only plan on purchasing one. I have a 46 gallon tank, so it is not overly large.

I assume the Zeovit K balance has some extra additives, but I am unclear if it is really any better than the Red Sea product?

What would be the best dosing plan?



Thanks,
Paul

I'm not sure, but the K Balance Strong might have only potassium in it, which is what I would want. I might bring the potassium level up over four doses over four days, and watch the tank carefully. We don't have much information on potassium dosing yet. Have you checked some freshly-mixed saltwater?

Purchase Potassium Chloride from iHerb.com or get Potassion from Brightwell.

For the cost, KZ is fairly weak in concentration.
