I took the time to dose my tank with Prodibio tonight. Cleaned the sump up a little, cleaned the skimmer, and stirred up the refugium a tad to get some detritus into the water and get the macro algae semi-rinsed. Here's my new (revised) dosing schedule.

I decided to try out the Reef Booster this time, but only used on vial. That is some smelly stuff, and left an oily slick on the surface of the return section (where I poured it in). I stirred this up with my hand to get it in suspension, and left the skimmer off for 20 to 25 minutes. The drains from the tank sounded much louder after dosing Booster, similar to what plumbing sounds like when tested with freshwater.
