Maybe you could start with 1drop per 50gallons for a week and then move up slowly from there, to 1 drop per 25 gallons and see how the tank responds after a week or two.

I noticed my colors got darker. They were very light before with just dosing vodka. Now they're much nicer, but that could be attributed to adding a fish or feeding a lot more.

I use the Elos in 2 different reefs and on my 180 gallon i have seen the colors become more rich (green and browns on the monti caps are more present and clear than faded) so i started using it at home. I use about 2 drops per 25 gallons of both Elos Omega and Elos Pro Skimmer. Haven't had any bad experiences with them yet and i dose at different times about once a week sometimes twice. Oh and my other reef is a 75 gallon.My red planet is more of a maroon polyp on pink base as of now also!
