New ICP tests From Tropic Marin.

I have used ati and oceamo and had good experiences. I do a monthly icp-ms test.

If you are keeping sps then many of us think trace elements make a big difference. There will be many bottles …

Or you could use a more all in one supplement and use icp to make sure you are not overdosing.

Otherwise, you could use icp-oes and just look for pollutants and use poly filter and water changes.

None

I already spent enough with a lot of them for inconsistent and unreliable results. Save your money for better stuff. Like the BeanAnimal approved snack - BACON!!!!

Just ordered the tropic Marin test. Waiting for delivery. What sold me was their “block” supplements vs a bottle for each.

Only time will tell I guess…

How long did it take from the time you mailed it off until you got your results?

I’ve seen some complaints that it took 3 plus weeks, but maybe that was due to it being new, idk.

About 2.5 weeks, but also my registration of the trst didnt save correctly, probably user error. So i had to reach out to them and check to see if the sample was still there.

But nit to bad, when i did another brand of twst it took almost a month, 28 days. it was crazy

I'm in Australia, so we are limited to who we can use. But have been using Triton with no issues.
I generally send in a test every 2-3 months or so, the info they send back is easy to follow and understand.
Since I have been doing it more regularly, my corals are definately colouring up better than they were before.
