Hey want to buy AF polyp up because I want to dose it through a dosing pump.

I had a few questions about it

1. Is the liquid like water or really thick?

2. does it have a horrible smell that goes through the house??

3. Does it need to be refrigerated

4. Do your LPS corals open up from it?

I can't find reviews,vids or anything.

For coral lovers, we have something special – Polyp-up. This nutritional supplement supports polyp extensions, enhances coloration, and increases coral resistance. Due to its unique formula, Polyp-up enhances color saturation and promotes tissue growth and the building of coral skeletons.


I dont know about the thickness, but it is a liquid so...
the smell would not run through your house, it will extend your sps polyps if used right with other stuff, im guessing yes, lps will extend cuz they have polyps.
but I am also
BUMPING
for u :D

I've never used this particular product, but I do like and use many AF products, they have so many them.... I currently use amino acids, vitality, and build.

I don't know if it needs refrigeration but I just put them in the fridge anyway.

My morbid curiosity compels me to ask why you're concerned about the viscosity of this product? :face-with-tears-of-joy:
Are you hoping to auto dose?

Also found this product which contains almost the same ingredients. This one says it can be dosed by dosing pump if the temperature doesn't go above 24 grades celcius. Sadly it also says it lowers pH and is why they recommend AF build with this one....

I would imagine due to the omega oils etc it would need to be refrigerated
I may be wrong.

The product just says it shouldn't go above 24 grades celcius nothing else so probably less concentrated then others but a decrease in ph sucks I don't want that :( . That's why Im stil hoping for polyp up. Also heard of another product called power elixer which is specifically for dosing pumps sadly that one only contains amino acids no fatty acids. I myself believe that corals trigger to open up with fatty acids.

I'm debating setting up a mini fridge next to tank to dose kz products for this reason
Adding 4-5 different bottles a day is laborious

The salt water is buffered. pH does not drop easily. Even though the pH in the water decreases, it tends to increase.
