Is there one additive that you swear by?

+1 8.4 from brightwell easy PH/ALK supplements thats what I use.
 
One additive that I always use is Bio Magnesium by Tropic Marin with good success. I find it really easy to dose, I just add a measuring spoon full for every 30 gallons and that increases my Mg levels by about 5 ppm
 
Great thread.

Only additive i use other than Amino Acids (which I'm not sure if I even need b/c the tank is so small) is food soaked in selcon. Funny thing is that I feel that my coral seem to get a greater benefit from it than the fish do...maybe due to it containing Vitamin C? I also feel that this product will assist in filter feeding (or is it just feeding the bacteria than in turn the filter feeders feed on?) as it claims, but I have heard others say they do not believe this at all. Great stuff IMO nonetheless.

Might try out some of the Korallen products too since reading this thread...wondering if I should discontinue use of selcon if using something like spongepower?
 
fuel every time I dose it I swear my corals say thanks
