Tropic Marin - All for reef

[User1]

Definitely go DIY otherwise you will lose a lot of money!
@Lou Ekus has recommended splitting the magnesium out and dosing magnesium separately on large tanks.

I didn't know that. Thanks for that tip.

The DIY recipe listed here makes it affordable price wise. I think the question would be how much your tank requires. I think it would be a similar question with a established and mature tank be it this product or two part. At some point depending on the corals it gets cost prohibitive and a reactor may be needed.

But it seems this DIY recipe is good. I'm using it on my 210 gallon mixed reef. It is still maturing and only 2 years in but I'm using it. I was using ESV 2 part previously. I love ESV 2 part but I've been slowly switching to Tropic Marin due to their open attitude to our hobby.

I mean they didn't have to provide this - they just did. So I'm really into supporting them with what little I can. Hell, if I find a t-shirt they sell I'll buy that too :D

I plan on buying the DIY kit the next time I need it. For a little more than it costs for 3 of the 1000ml bottles I can make the amount of 10 of them.
