Hi All. I have been using AFR recently. Easy to mix and use but water test shows low trace minerals. So, could I also use Remineral with RO water change water? I suspect the Remineral boosts the kDH quite a bit. Thanks for any tips here.

The lfs sells the Reefzlements test. Test showed no pollutants, macro events at a good level, but iodine a bit low and trace elements all low. So far I have started dosing iodine. After using AFR for 2 months I was surprised that trace elements were low. Should I use AFR and Remineral, or just one or the other?AFR provides pretty much everything you need.
Which water test is showing low levels of trace elements?
In most systems trace elements replenished simply by regular water changes - there really is no need to supplement them other than that.The lfs sells the Reefzlements test.

Thank you. What you say is helpful and makes good sense.In most systems trace elements replenished simply by regular water changes - there really is no need to supplement them other than that.
If you have a huge system fully. stocked with coral you may reconsider based upon ICP testing.
I don't believe any over the counter test will provide a useful level of information about trace elements.
