I did very slow at first as well, many use the same method as you.
Do You think long term
Use is ok? I posted on another site as well and nothing concrete. I’m down to 3 drops slowly bringing phosphates to a little over .2 or about that.
I got my info from mshur.....he's been using for years successfully....
2 drips each about 15 hours
4 days apart

Just remembered and here is link and the reason why to drip in skimmer or a sock
Lanthanum Chloride and Tangs | BeanAnimal's Reef
Lanthanum Chloride dosing in reef aquaria is an extremely effective means of phosphate removal. A growing body of evidence shows that fishes of the genus Zebrasoma may be highly sensitive to such treatments. This article examines my first hand experience.

So far ok. Lost some coral but not sure if I crashed phosphates too harshly or my lack of wc to replenish nutrients. I’m sticking to 3 drops daily, all
Levels the same, and will give at least a month before changing protocol. I will be changing 20/30 gallons weekly, just to see how corals react

Years ago I was dosing diluted LC for a fowler/some corals system and over time it started to haze my low iron glass. Just a heads up if you start to notice the same.

I scraped and then scrubbed with a magic eraser and some of the haze was still there. Eventually over time, most of the haze disappeared but I would not say 100%
You can do a search on R2R about it and others have had the same results with LC and haze.

Oh wow, thanks for the feedback! I’m currently doing 3 drops hopefully won’t be a problem. I will search it up
Idk about that. I'm low iron dosing lc for 4 years now. No haze. . Idk long term side effects though
