Do you dose supplement for your sps tank? Except Amino acid. Anythings like Iron, Potassium Iodine, Potassium?
Currently using reef crystal salt, I dont know if the salt has enough of these element for best coloration.

Shouldn't ever need to dose any of those to your tank unless you're running a Triton system. If you do weekly, bi-weekly or even monthly WC then those levels are okay. If you're going months at a time without changing the water then some elements may start to diminish.

Not needed. Calcium reactor chewing through media like mad and weekly 15% water changes. Keeps everything colorful, fast growing, excellent PE, and stupid simple. No need to add all those extra steps and products

I am with all of these guys... not necessary.

The only thing that I would recommend dosing is Iron if you are growing a lot of chaeto in a fuge.
