What "liquids" are you currently adding to your reef tank?

[ReefBeta]

If you're also counting element dosing, my list is long:

• saturated kalkwasser
• All-For-Reef
• Red Sea amino AB+
• PhytoFeast
• OysterFeast
• Red Sea Trace Color ABCD

All through dosers.

Then recently started adding manually for AEFW:

• Purge
• Flatworm Stop

 

[Calm Blue Ocean]

I've tried bacterial additives. I cycled my tank with Fritz Turbo Start (worked great) and while fighting dinos I dosed Microbacter7 daily (I was doing so many other things I'm not sure if this helped or not).

I've tried liquid trace elements but they just seem to feed my dinos.

I briefly dosed silicates to help fight dinos.

And speaking of dinos again, I used liquid nitrate and phosphate to help fix the zeroes. Worked great. Now months later I'm considering NoPoX since now my numbers are sky high ./sigh

Vibrant gave me cyano and didn't touch my GHA.

I've tried the coralline algae in a bottle twice but no success.

I've used Selcon and GarlicPower to help get fish eating. Not sure if it really helped.

I've tried phyto but not sure what if anything it really did for my system so it's just something I get if I'm ordering something else to make the shipping worth it. My old tank reacted strongly to it, though. Even small amounts turned my tank green.

My cabinet makes me look like a mad scientist.

 

[rtparty]

Alkalinity, Calcium, TM Part C, Phyto, Zeovit Coral Vitalizer, Strontium, Potassium, Vanadium, Zinc, Manganese, Fluorine, soon to be Molybdenum, Brightwell Replenish...anything needed to run the Reef Moonshiners system. All about elements and keeping them steady

Water

 

[Aldrinlights]

Reef Energy AB+ adding 30ML to my 100 gallons of water daily as a broadcast feeding. I stop all circulation but a very weak pump for half an hour while the food is in the display. Been adding it daily for 2 months and it hasn't raised my parameters or caused any negative effects. My corals are very brightly colored and growing fast.

 

[Dburr1014]

Magnesium, h2o2 and microbactor7
Love dinos

 

[Sleeping Giant]

Anyone use Red Sea ABCD? I just bought it and the test kit.
I am not dosing anything, should I be good just doing a test and try to balance the system based on the test results?

 

[rhostam]

A few things.

Manually, as needed or scheduled:

• Mercer of Montana Phytoplankton
• (prepared as liquid) BRS Reef Chili OR
• (prepared as liquid) Reef Roids
• Brightwell Coral Amino
• Brightwell MicroBacter 7
• Seachem Reef Iodide

Dosed:

• Concentrate kalkwasser
  

 

[Barnabie Mejia]

I was dosing an Alk mix from baking soda but I just started Tropic Marin ALL-For-Reef. So my list looks like:

All- For-Reef
RedSea AB+
MicroBactr7 / Seachem Stability (Alternate between the two)


I may need to start a little Vibrant to help out the tank a little, but its not too bad. I would rather do the large water changes over risking tanking the nutrients and causing more issues.

[WiscoFishNut]

1. All-For-Reef daily
2. See item 1. It's so easy to use even I can't mess it up. My corals look healthy and happy, so I'm assuming it works

 

[kagisexton]

Currently dosing on pumps: calcium, alkalinity, magnesium, trace colors A, B, C, D, AB+, NoPox. All dosed daily. Explosive growth in Acro dominated system

 

[David S]

Oy
Where do I begin?
1. Dose the basic:
Alk, CA, MG & K
2. Dose additional elements as per Reef Moonshiners, either daily or weekly.
3. Occasionally dose following bacterial products:
Biodigest, Microbacter 7, Eco-Balance and lately PNS Pro Bio.
4. Aminos - Coralamino, Acropower and AB+
5. Vitamins - Selcon, Garlic Xtreme & Vita chem
Did I forget anything?
Probably

 

[Ferrell]

30 gal use Kalk, KZcoral vitalizer.
75 gal use brs 2 part, liquid aminos.
Selcon and liquid plankton in food

 

[MattB69]

Currently dosing vibrant as well as nitrates and phosphates to keep them from bottoming out.

I just went thru an emergency tank change last weekend and didn't put my substrate back in so I dosed some MB7 after just in case.

 

[michealprater]

Algae Barn OceanMajik, Red Sea AB+ and Tropic Marin All-For-Reef

 

[Jeffcb]

[AJsReef]

Just started dosing 50ml of Algae Barn phyto daily. Not sure if the 35ml NeoPhos and 20ml NeoNitro count too

 

[alimac122]

Reef Energy AB+ adding 30ML to my 100 gallons of water daily as a broadcast feeding. I stop all circulation but a very weak pump for half an hour while the food is in the display. Been adding it daily for 2 months and it hasn't raised my parameters or caused any negative effects. My corals are very brightly colored and growing fast.

Oof. I’ve only been adding 20ml once every other week in my 93g. Maybe I should up it to twice a week!
Where do your nitrates/phosphates sit?

 

[alimac122]

Daily:
- phyto
- RO
-NOPOX

weekly:
- all for reef
- strontium
- Red Sea ab+ mixed with reef roids & polyp booster
