If you want to stay in the Red Sea brand, they have a “Trace Colors” set of supplements. The names and how they describe them is confusing imo (at least to me), but the concept is that different trace elements relate (very broadly) to different coral colors.

I bought the 4-pack (A, B, C, D) of 100 ml bottles to start testing it on my tank ~6 weeks ago, as I was (/am) low on all of the trace elements they cover based on the tank ICP results.

They provide instructions on dosing based on several methods… I’m using the method that keys off of calcium consumption, which I test and track weekly.

Full disclosure: this is not an endorsement… I’m testing and observing.
