Having a 230 gal reef .
recently noticed nutrients a little higher . And alk sitting around 7 dkh
A few acros starting to turn pale tips ,

adding microbactor 7 is said to lower all nutrients ...

is this essentially the same product as aqua vitro remediation ?

a small bottle of microbactor will dose 650 gal
And as nitrifying bacteria , typically we would dump the bottle contents in .
is it beneficial to dose according to the directions ?

What is causing the elevated nutrients? What ways of export do you currently have? How high are they? Alkalinity can be brought up in various ways. I add baking soda to my top off water to keep it stable.
