jhebi, the bottle will recommend that you dose daily. Like ReefWreak mentioned, overdosing isn't really an issue since you only get algae growth overnight. When you first begin, dose with a salifert syringe because it is only 1 ml and your dosages will be more precise. Also, to slowly adjust your tank to the Amino Acids, dose about 30%-40% less than the recommended dosage, this way the change in the tank will be slow.

ReefWreak, as a suggestion, if you become more consistant with your dosages you may see a difference in both coloration and polyp extension. I was once inconsistant with the dosages, but when I became more dedicated to dosing daily, things changed for the better.
