Question about combining suppliments

[Lt Jeff]

I am dosing a half dose of Coral Colors and Reef Energy every couple days and was wondering if I could combine the six supplements in pre-measured bottles ahead of time instead of using six separate bottles every two days. Any ill effect?

IMO never a good idea to mix elements. everything has different potency.

Right but if
A needs 1ml
B needs 1.5 ml
C needs 2 ml
D needs 1.5 ml
etc
I can measure each day out and pre-fill syringes and combine them, right?

Mixing these concentrated minerals together before being diluted in the aquarium water may cause them to bind together and they may not properly disolve once added to the aquarium, making them far less potent, or useless.

Good point. I had a feeling...
