Hello All,

When is the optimum time to dose AB+? I have been feeding my corals ~6hrs into the 12hr light cycle every 2 days but recently came across a post that said feed AB+ when the lights are off...This is my first time using AB+ and have been dosing for about a month now. Curious when others dose this food.

Thanks in advance!
Cheers

Depends on when your corals feed. My NPS like to open right after lights out .

Nothing days you have to put it all in at once. I often put half the dose in morning and half at night. And alternate day and night with some other things I feed to the corals. I’ve got ones that seem to feed at different times.

Looking back to your reefing roots: Did you start with Instant Ocean salt?
