Nutrients or bite the bullet for ICP

[VanDalsenReef]

Just dealing with low nutrients.
Should I try to increase them (is there a good amino or something to color corals)
Or do I just think they're pale.
Would an ICP actually be beneficial?

I wouldn't overanalyze. They look good to me

Thanks. I'm just seeing others tanks and their colors are crazy and have slightly higher nutrients than I

I was recently in a conversation with a reefer about low nutrients at the lfs. I've had an issue with it since day 1. He mentioned that he had a hard time keeping any steady nutrients in his sps tank and was able to accomplish it dosing plus np from tropic Marin for a time. I watched the brs videos and read on it a little decided it wasn't best suited for me at this time, but if you do some research it may be more applicable to you.

I use MEcoral potassium nitrate which helps but definitely not enough. I can triple dose nitrates and the next day it may have gone up to 5 nitrates and then the third day back to less than 1

Your colors look good to me.
I try and keep no3<3 and po4 <.1.
This works well and I also feed heavy. I only feed the fish.
