I've used bleach in hydroponics (sodium hypochlorite) for decades. 3 ppm is typical with DWC. Adding the same dose every third day and with anything going in to the reservoir like top offs and reservoir changes.

It's not a matter of if but when will you get pythium root rot if you don't do any preventative measures. If you can't control the water temps you should go sterile.

Here the dilution calculator:

Good luck! You've caught on early so I think you're going to fix all of your problems.
