I heard alot of different opinions on how much to add, what I did was start with what you did per gallon and then test for a couple of days to see the effects and if need go up from there. The good thing is you really cannot add to much, it will only dissolve a certain amount and then it just stops dissolving.

Here is a good article about it:
