How often are you going to feed phyto? Or is it going to depend on how the tank looks?

3 times a day to a total of 10 ml to start with.
I am going to dose 1 drop of aminos a week as the tank is so small or my cyano will kick off.
The liquid food I use can also set it off so that will depend on how the tank settles.

Although they seem to be helping with coral color and health, aminos have also kicked off some ugly’s in my tank.. I just reduced my dosing from 6 drops a day to 3 and will monitor closely going forward.

sorry to see the little fella go, Hey whats the turn over between the two? is all the fine food going to set off the main display?

I have cut back the feeding and aminos on the big tank, this little tank being a small aio I have to watch how much I put in so starting low and working from there, if I need to I will do small water changes.

I have dropped from 10 drops a day in the big tank to 5.
I dosed one drop in here yesterday as a kick start, that is a big dose.
Chatting to a couple of mates at the lfs earlier and I am going to dilute it in RO and start adding "X" drops a day, it is a great feeding response stimulater.
