I did on my 29 cube, i didnt like them one bit... They eventually turned my water sour and everything went downhill from there. Cant blame it entirely on them, but i have heard other people doing the same thing.

This is more than a hobby; its a lifestyle.

Balance blocks fit in the category of constant dosing. Enough to send any tank into a crash. I ran a test on them years back on a nano tank. It sent the parameters crazy within a couple of months.

Better off with a doser any day of the week.
