Aquaforest products

[ariel47]

Hi everyone. I'm interested in using Aquaforest products, but getting no help in advising what products I need. My tank is a 200 gallon mixed reef started in April this year. It will be mostly LPS, with some SPS. I've asked this question in the aquaforest Facebook group and reefcentral. With no response. I know they have a manual, I've downloaded, so many products listed I didn't know where to start. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I even contacted someone on their support board and was told to join the group and ask questions there, well I did and no response. So this is my last request request for help. The products seems awesome, and I know my tank would look so much better, just need to know where to start.

I started with the 1+2+3+ and was so happy with how my tank looked that I switched over to there reef salt and also dose NP Pro, Pro bio s. This would also be a good starting point for you. I also dose components A,B,C in very small amounts twice a week. There is a bunch of information here and the recipe for the 1+2+3+ in post 143 which will save a bunch on by mixing the 1+2+3+ yourself.

Thank you so much. Isn't the A,B,C the same as component 1,2,and 3? Do you dose NP Pro and Pro Bio on a doser or do u manually dose? Thanks for the link I'll look at it tonight when I get off work.

Ok A,B and c are different product.

I moved away from Aquaforrest because their customer service is absoutley appalling, ATI essentials is what I will use but not sure you guys can get it in the US yet

A,B,C, is the trace elements only were as the 1+2+3+ is a balling method of dosing . Yes I dose the NP Pro and the Pro Bio s. I dose both on a doser

Hit replay and I will get back to you if you have more questions.

I have not had an issue with AF customer service, I would say they take there time getting back because of a langue issue.

 

[ariel47]

Where do I buy ATI Essentials?

 

[becks]

I'm not sure if you can in the US yet, it's German and only just arrived in the UK. I would email them if your interested.

If you look at Aquaforest vendor page here you will find many more answers ....

 

[ariel47]

Both methods seems interesting. Haven't been able to find out any prices on ATI. Checked out their UTube videos but didn't get much out of them due to the language barrier.

 

[ariel47]

Will start purchasing some of my products next week. I though I read where you need a reactor?

 

[ariel47]

Becks, where will you purchase your products? I've found several vendors for Aquaforest.
