Power-up your Acro's..........

[JMSKI333]

I don't want to jump the gun, but after 4 days I have seen increased color and PE in one of my Acro's.

I figured I would take some more pictures this morning since I was doing a water change and thats when I took the previous pictures. There does seem to be some improvement atleast to my eyes. Especially with the Tort having new growth at the tips. Im going to stack the pictures for comparison.

A few other things I am doing. Im using Prodibio's Biokit reef which I do every two weeks after my water change. I also dose Fuel every two days. I get no polyp extension due to my orange spot filefish. I blow rocks off every two days. Cal 420, Alk 8 and Mag 1400. I feel if your going to talk about something you kind of need to give a lil more info so people have a clue what your doing. Tank is white starboard bottom, and I use AI vega's for lighting. Few notes, Since using this my Miami Hurricane Chalice is growing like mad and my Jason fox Jacko Lantern is growing quite a bit. Sorry some of the pics suck, these were taken with a Samsung Note 3.

I am seeing more fluorescence in my SPS. That's the best way I can describe it. Pretty sure it's doing something

Are you guys dosing at recomendations? 5ml per 25g seems to be a lot every day.

Thats weekly dosage. I just started yeaterday with 11.78ml weekly at 1.68 daily. My doser does .14ml every other hour. My tank is a 40b with 30gal sump so I guess roughly 55 to 60 gal

I have been doing 10ml a week in my 75... might up it a little

It's 5ml per 25 gallons a week.

 

[RalphsReef]

I divided mine up and dose daily.

Do you think it would be better in smaller increments or adding all at once as recommended?

The bottle recommends using a doser if possible

We dose 3ml twice a day on a 200 gallon.
All setup with a GHL.
I see more improvement's on SPS everyday.

No I haven't but I have no more open channels on the doser. Ill see how this works long term before trying anything else

 

[TheSaint216]

Ive been adding mine all at once. Every Wednesday.

 

[JMSKI333]

I add 3ml every night before the lights go off. Here is one of my Sps with noticable color and PE improvement after one week.


Before Acropower on Jan 4th

Less than one week of using Acropower on Jan 10th.

If you can't see it in the photos, then you will have to take my word for it. Colors and PE is better.

I am not great with a camera. You can probabaly tell.

Is this for established tanks? Can you use this on new tanks?

I suppose you could but you wouldnt know if it was working because you wouldnt have anythjng to compare it too from before
