Dosing frequency is directly proportional to stability of ionic concentrations and, resultantly, gradual changes in the coloration (manifesting as intensification) of coloration of zooxanthellate cnidarians.  A 1 - 10 s drip interval during the photoperiod provides adequate ionic stability, and is recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf no automated dosing system is available, then apply solution manually each day or as frequently as possible.
