My friend and i almost nuked our tanks with these things! You have to be careful when using the full system that you don't rip too many nutrients from the water too fast. If you do then you'll end up with bleaching and even stn or even worse rtn (overdose). I have tried it and seen it do all different things for different people, coloring up then bleaching, then coloring up again. Weird.

In short, i don't trust in it. But i do trust in water changes! It gives me more color than zeo ever could!

Oh yes, absolutely. Which is why I'm proceeding very cautiously.

Things like Amino Acids, Coral Snow and Coral Vitalizer have absolutely no impact other than wasting your money if you overdose. Regardless, with any of these products, the listed price on the bottle is the MAXIMUM recommended dose. You should start with half dose then work your way up until you achieve the results you're looking for.

I am just wondering if coral vitalizer is just for SPS, not LPS? And AA LPS is truly for LPS (food)?
