Recently switched from red sea to brs 2 part dosing. My tank is a 26 gal nano aio. I perform weekly water changes with tm pro. Looking for trace elements recommendations if any. My tank is a mixed reef, mostly lps, some sps and softies.

How big a water change do you do and what’s your alkalinity consumption like? If doing a large enough water change you may not need to dose trace elements at all.

I change 10% 2 gallons weekly. Alk usage i dose approx 5-7 ml brs soda ash daily to maintain 9dkh
 
There are many brands and diy to pick from, both as mixtures and as individual elements.

IMO Tropic Marin A and K is a reasonable one to try.
