FWIW, we have diy two part recipes using hydroxide as well. They predate the commercial versions., though I am glad someone now makes it for folks who do not want to diy. :)

Randy definitely knows his stuff. Hydroxide will DEFINITELY increase pH

For sure. It’s not cheap, but it’s very effective.

It is actually cheaper than anything you buy from a “reef” store! Way cheaper to be honest

No I mean the Not a Feesh 2 part. That is not cheap. Do it yourself I am sure is extremely cheap if you feel comfortable doing it. I havent looked into it. Not A Feesh adds traces to the mix also. Just easier. But not the cheapest option for sure.

Why do you keep phrasing it "reef" store? Do you not like "reef" stores?

You pay the reef tax buying from reef stores. Not a freesh two part is sodium hydroxide. Which if you follow Randy’s DIY, you get the same results for a fraction of the price.
