I bagged at least 10 frags for you at rich that night, and plus another "25" on your frag rack already.

Thanks! I think I have a bottle of each. The ones I use most often are coral snow and zeozym. I also add zeo spur2 and zeo spur macro elements once every two weeks and as for aminos, once every two weeks but it looks like I may need to increase it to once a week. I also dose k and b balance, potassium iodide once a week at this time and polls extra as needed. I am also dosing brightwell potassium and reef strontium once a week.

Those pieces are stunning, they have such vivid colors with a light base. Mind if I ask you what levels you keep your nitrates, phosphates at, and what zeovit products are you using to get the awesome color changes? Do you feed the tank quite heavily as well?

Just completed my testing today and my nitrates is under .2 ( salifert) and phosphates is undetectable ( using Hanna hi ranger checker). These two levels have been consistent for the last three months and is due to consistent biweekly 50 gallon water changes and not feeding the fish heavy ( I feed the fish pellets and nori daily and they get a pinchful of pellets three times per day. I have almost every blue bottle available however i do not dose daily. Here is what my zeo schedule looks like...

Coral snow: two-three times per week
Zeozym: one to two times per week
Zeospur 2: once every two weeks
Zeospur Macro elements: same time as Zeospur 2
K and B Balance: once a week
Potassium iodide: once a week
Biomate: one to two times per week
Pohl's Extra: as needed
Sps Aminos: once per week
LPS Aminod: once per week

I am also dosing brightwells potassium and reef strontium once a week.

Here are a few new pics...
