Anyone want to share their experience with this product...maybe some photos of before and after. I love the reef roids and get decent feeder tentacles but want to know if this stuff helps. I did buy a bottle just to try and if it doesnt work well it will at least help me keep my nutrients up :)

It worked with some of my coral. I drop the polyp booster 1 or 2 min before reef roid. My favia and some acan do extend their tentacle. The dump reef roid mixed with tank water in.

Take it slow. Do about half the recommended dosage for about a month. I tried using the recommended dosage and my nutrients sky rocketed. Roughly 25 drops is 1ml. In a 29 gallon I'm feeding 12 drops of Polyp Booster and 1/8 tsp of Reef Roids a week.

As for the quality? I was using Red Sea Reef Energy and Reef Chili and have that one coral that wouldn't color up or grow. Within a month it's really coloring up and now starting to finally grow.

Just to keep nutrients low, I put 2-3 drops in my 12 gallon twice a week, right before feeding Reef Roids, seems to work great. I also dose 0.5mL of Aqua Vitro fuel every other day, so that may play a part too.

So how did you like the stuff? Would you recommend it or not?

Since using Reef Roids and Polyp Booster. 4 months worth of growth and coloration.
After my crash I thought this thing was dead.

Oh wow that's impressive results ! Do the corals show a feeding response once you put the drops in?

I assume they do but I always feed after lights out so I can't really see the feeding response except for my Scroll Coral. It too was brown and yellow but has now picked up its purple and yellow. After lights out the polyps extend about another 1/8th".
