Are you dosing any other addictives as well? Notice any improvements or still the same?

Have not notice any raise in po4 or no3 . Have stopped milk dosing already. Although there is 1 ssc frag coloured up from fully brown , but i dont know if its the milk or my zeolight system. I dont think is the milk that helps color up though

I think it might make sense, its give a fair amount of protein source and milk has the correct vitamin like calcium, potassium, vitamin D, ammo acids vital for most corals. Unless your corals is Lactose intolerance.. Lol

Hi guys,

John here, I'm just new here and I find this method very interesting, I don't doubt that milk can add vibrancy to corals due to calcium being intaken from the milk, but I'm not convinced of it not having any negative effects until I proved that it does only good.

I'm just a beginner or considering myself intermidiate for having several experiences, but I do not have the money to buy all the stuffs that corals require and I'm looking for alternate stuffs that also contains the same substance as the products that are sold exclusive for marine life. 

I don't actually measure anything about those nitrates, phospates, or even calcium but my tank seems to do good with everything with fish and I don't even acclimate sensitive inverts but still survives and live healthy, the problem is with my corals specifically my bubble coral, its skelton is thinning but still opens magnificently and others lack vibrancy.

Here's a pic. Of my tank.

IMG20180418135819.thumb.jpg.462dae35ebd50e31c5f8c0660d537a85.jpg

Its polyps expand widely everyday but I've been noticing that its flesh deflates and won't stick to the thinning skeleton thightly that brings me to conclusion that my tank lacks calcium because that's the only thing I know connected to bone figure so I thought that milk might help because it's natural source of calcium and then I found this and only to find out that I'm not the only one curious about using such product as an alternative to expensive marine products sold to LFS.

IMG20180418135905.thumb.jpg.4dc9af7aaea5c372bee8eda024bd3a3e.jpg

And here's the pic. Of flesh shrinking to the skeleton due to weak bone structure because of lack of calcium(conclusion) and I bought it with all flesh attached to the skeleton and now it shrinks and slowly detaching but still opens very good.

These pics. Are taken at the same day. It just deflates becauce I closed the lights.

Hi guys,

Me again, I just decided to start the method this day and I added 1ml milk for my 10 gallon tank and I use this brand HarveyFresh© it's full cream milk and 100 percent pure free range cow milk. Sugar-free.IMG20180418222952.thumb.jpg.707faadc3fc1a0d6c98b7c7239440a1b.jpg

I enjoy taking this method, and I'll update you guys every other day with pics. In order for us to point some changes in time.

And sorry for duplicating my BC pic. On my last comment, and also let me clarify that I don't check water parameters but I clean my tank manually and does water changes frequently, and for more info about my reef tank is that I only feed my corals phytoplanktons and has good lighting and I designated good spots for corals who needs high water flow and low water flow. Tnx guys.
