KZ Flatworm Stop. Any reason not to use it?

Yea I ended up cancelling my order due to fear of this scenario

I’ve done a double dose for years now and never had an issue

I tried dosing it a month ago, along with coral booster. My zoas closed every time I dosed FWS, but I continued to dose every other day for two weeks. I quit when I saw no positive effects, and because it ticks off my zoas. Since I stopped my zoas remain happy. I still use coral booster, but honestly still see no positive effects from using it…

Thanks, I have some fussy zoa and don’t want to mess with stable iodine levels let alone who knows what else is in there that could tick those little prima donnas off lol

IME, acros love it, almost too much. For non-infected use, I personally only dose 25% every other day. When it comes to additives, who really knows, better to use less.

Hi all,
Found a solution to getting more depth to the scape. I built a 24" long frag rack, that stands 5" high, and is 4" in depth behind my scape. I was able to place some colonies that were in the back, with only tips visible, which is a darn shame! So, this builds the reef higher towards the back, now putting a pink table, Miyagi, and Aquamarine Jewel out on full display :)
I think it looks fantastic!!!
This is where the planning is paying off. Most corals are on individual mounting rubble or small rocks. This allows for me to blend corals for optimal color contrast and shapes. While I prefer to group my corals, the different shape contrast is equally important to building the reef. For the most part, I have maintained my gardens, smoothies, tenuis, millis, for example.
I will put up a picture when the lights come up :)

Are there any updates on this additive's use?

Ill say only use it for what its meant to be for. Flatworms. Yes it works for flatworms I have used it once you have high Iodine corals will tend to look more dark color IME. Once I stop using it and made a couple of water changes corals got back looking better in color.

Until they say what's in it, I would pass. They pack a lot of trace elements in it, so if you're using it, you better keep an eye on them, especially iodine.

It increases iodine, but I’m not sure if that’s a problem or not.

Iodine is through the roof for me at 200 plus but everything else seems normal according to ICP.

yeah high iodine will only make some corals look darker or brownish, but once your flatworm free and stop dosing, its start to come down once you do water changes
