I’m a little a stumped. I use Reef Crystals and haven’t dosed a single thing until this point. I noticed that my colors haven’t been there with my corals, specifically blues, reds, purples. I purchased the Red Sea Trace colors ABCD but I’m confused by the directions because they’re mostly in terms of dosing calcium. I don’t dose calcium because there’s enough in my water changes to keep my levels high enough to support what I have stocked. I change 20% monthly in my 70 gallon system (includes refugium as well). I’m terrified of overdosing and losing my livestock. It’s a mixed reef with both SPS/LPS. Below are my numbers:
Salinity - 1.026
Calcium 460 ppm
KH 11
PH 8.0
Phosphate .25ppm
Nitrate 0ppm
Ammonia 0ppm
Nitrite - 0ppm
Potassium - 344 pm
Iodine - 0.06
Iron - 0
