H2O2 question - 29% - RDWC system - suggestions?

Hey RIUppers I've ordered some H2O2 for my RDWC system. If you're an anti-peroxide grower than this thread is not for you. BUT - if you too are down with the hydrogen peroxide than I need your advice. I want to add every 2 days to fight off/prevent root rot/algae/bacteria and increase oxygen at the root zone. How much should I add per gallon to do this effectively without adversely effecting the grow. Plants are in week 4 at about 480 PPM - pH 5.6 and stable - water chilled to 68 and in tent temp around 80.

I like to mix mine in a gallon of water (about 4-5ml) and inject my res with this mixture every other day.
 
That's all? That's less than a ml per gallon, no? I thought it should be more. I have about 20 gallons total in the system. Would 5 ml really be enough?

It's very concentrated. You only need a ridiculously tiny amount. Not to be confused with the 3% h202 from the supermarket.
 
Thanks for the input bro. From those pics I guess you know what you're talking about for real.
BUT What's right for one might not be right for all. Does anyone use any other amount?
