drato11 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Hi all, Can anyone share if additives/supplements are necessary for LPS? Today I was at petmart, saw so many different kinds of supplements/additive for reef until i blur liao.... I'm currently just using Seachem Reef Advantage Calcium as my calcium level in the tank is depleting rather quickly. Currently have 3 brains, 1 bubble, 1 hammer torch, 1 gionopora, 2 small frags of zoo in my 2ft nano reef. Today just bought the Seachem Reef Plus. Wonder if it's any good? Hope to hear from bros here on good recommendations of additives/supplement to use. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member kueytoc Posted October 31, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted October 31, 2005 If you carry out 10%-20% water change once a month you wouldn't need to add additives...perhaps just add Iodide by Aquapharm will do.

drato11 Posted October 31, 2005 Author Share Posted October 31, 2005 Thanks for the reply/suggestions. I'll check out <tropic marin pro coral mineral> soon. I'm using Seachem Reef Advantage Calcium, it says it contains proportionate amount of Strontium and Magnesium. As such, issit still a requirement to dose Strontium and Magnesium separately?

SRC Member Tigger Posted October 31, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted October 31, 2005 I am using Kentmarine trace element. Was using salifert and Seachem trace element before that. Feel that all of them is the same. As for Ca and Kh, I have been using Aquaz before i got a CR. Value for money product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
