Hahahaha. I had the same issue last sale, so this time around, I turned my ATO off the night before so the waterline would be a little lower to allow for floating more bags. I also floated three bags in my quarantine tank.

So what's is everyone's preferred dip? I have coral Rx, Revive, potassium chloride, and Bayer.

Bean... maybe queso if they're caribbean varieties.

The one in the center @Rennurdoar ?

Yup, that one!

And yeah, I really was at a low point after the SVE. I think what helped me through was the fish survived and some of the corals also. Everything is really starting to bounce back and look good. Just wish I could figure out my 0/0 No3/Po4 issue...

Also, that bumble bee frag makes me jealous! I'm hoping to get another if they're available again!

Does that include PolypLabs Reef Primer? I know it is a potassium salt. I have it and have only used it for corals that needed an iodine type dip, so I've used it twice when what I think was my cleaner shrimp destroying a blastos looking for food.

I just got straight potassium chloride and followed the 2 tablespoons per gallon for 10 minutes.

I ran 0/0 for the last year. I feed heavy on coral foods. I used to do Red Sea AB+ daily and benepets daily with reef roids or some other powdered food rotated in (reef roids every seven days, Reef chili every four days, every 3rd day I do targeted goniopower, some days I'll do coral frenzy).

During this sale, per @billyocean 's suggestion, I dove into the thread from SBB on "high end tenuis hoarder". Seeing where Shane keeps his nutrients, I started dosing some NeoNiteo and switched to Aquavitro Fuel daily and more reef chili (every third day). I also did this because one of the corals I had started turning white at the base. I think it was starving, even though I dose stuff, I think persistent food in the water column was more necessary. It's stopped, not sure if it is shading, nutrients or something else. I'm actually going to put a light bar in at an angle to cover some of the lower branches, but to be honest I probably have overkill on lighting with two Noopsyche k7 pro v3s on my 32 gallon Fluval which is only 15" deep.

I will say, one wild acro I had which was growing beautifully started a rapid necrosis on the base. I think it liked near zero nutrients since that is closer to the ocean. I chopped it up into four frags and I'm hoping it makes it since it had great colors and was doing well over the last three months. My current nutrients are 7 nitrate and .03 phosphates.

This also goes back to the comment on how often do you test. I'm still playing around with having measurable nutrients, so trying to find that good balance, so for now testing a lot.
