I recently purchased 2 part NatuReef Alk and Hardiness Plus. The bottle states no more than 5ml of each at a time. But how often do I add it, everyday,once a week, every other day what?

I'm not familiar with that product but every other dosing item, whether it be buffer, mag/alk etc., it is daily until the desired params are reached then maintained as needed. Just my $0.02

The thing is that it's hard to give a dosing scheme when all tanks are different. In other words I suggest you test your tank, find out where it's at, and then go from there. Eventually you'll find out what your tank needs on a daily/weekly basis though it will change over time due to growth or a change in your tank by other means.
