What makes you think you need to dose it?
I am curious because I've always stuck with the idea that if it ain't broke, You might not need to try to fix it.

I've just heard good things on coral growth and general tank health

and some other reads from reef central.

goggling pufferpunk vitamin c is a great place to go too.

I'm dosing much less than what is recommended I believe. but I'm literally dosing only on a frag rack of zoas because that's where I want to test the results. So whatever is left in the rest of my tank is not a big deal to me.

I actually think 1/4 of a teaspoon for your tank daily would be a good place to start. ascorbic acid doesn't last long after it's mixed with water so some of it might not be used by your coral before it basically is rendered useless.
