    Quantum

    Has anyone used Quantum Easy E and Quantum Easy Z? I am guessing the extra elements are dosed based on the consumption of the primary 'alkalinity and calcium'? https://www.quantumaqua.com.au/product/easy-reefer-easy-z/ https://www.quantumaqua.com.au/product/easy-reefer-easy-e/

    ABC Trident Reagents

    Has anyone used these reagents from www.abcreagents.com for their trident? Supposedly they work just like the Neptune reagents but obviously they are much cheaper. If people have any experience with these, please comment. If they work well, this will definitely be a game changer!
