UK reef keepers / label-led

Measure first.
Dose from the label.

Already chosen product and target? ReefDose checks how one raising-product label scales to net water, shows arithmetic, and splits total only when label supplies a maximum.

Test 01 / Label 02 / Dose 03 / Proof 04

One correction ledger, from fresh test to verified record.

Keep sources beside arithmetic. ReefDose remembers your test and label rules, calculates proportion and split, then asks you to verify every input before saving.

01

Fresh test trail

Keep recent tank measurements on this device, then reuse the exact value you tested.

02

Label shelf

Save keeper-entered product rules: amount, effect, reference volume, source, and cap.

03

Capped correction

Calculate five reef parameters and split the total into label-capped steps.

04

Verified record

Match tank, test, target, label, and cap before saving a local evidence receipt.

Supported / 05

Five parameters. One label rule.

  • Alkalinity
  • Calcium
  • Magnesium
  • Nitrate
  • Phosphate

Narrow job

Use ReefDose when

  • You have a fresh test result.
  • You already chose product and target.
  • Raising-product label states amount, effect, and reference volume.
  • You want to inspect scaling before using product.

Different job

Use another tool when

  • You need target or product recommendations.
  • You need to lower a parameter.
  • You need reminders or recurring schedules.
  • You need pump or dosing-hardware automation.

Non-negotiable limits

Calculates dose. Never chooses it.

No target recommendation. No product recommendation. No diagnosis, livestock advice, or invented schedule. If a manufacturer maximum is missing, ReefDose shows total amount and withholds steps.
