Tailored Aquatics.....Can you tell I like the product???

I use many of Tailored Aquatic products.......have to say the most amazing one is his Nitrate Destroyer...I had, in excess of 100ppm (or the very very very darkest pink on the chart) and my tank is an SPS tank! All corals were fine except not very colorful and the growth was not great. I used the product per the instructions....had noticed an increase in color...growth etc but forgot to measure my Nitrates. Towards the end of the schedule I tested and was in the 10-25 area but was not done the full treatment.......I just tested and for the first time in any tank I have ZERO....!!!!!!!!!!! ZERO! So I measured again...and it really is ZERO! I have no nitrates detectable. I feed very heavily and have 3 tangs......so this stuff works....!HUGE thumbs up~

Does anyone know where you can get their product in the Kelowna/Vernon area? Thanks.

Hey Ron.....contact Brad (Tailored Aquatics).....I'm not sure if anyone out there does stock it...I know OA does and will ship. Brad has a really good line of products...I use many of them... and so far the Aiptasia one works too! (Amazing)

RonPeter 09-22-2008 09:51 PM

Thanks I will.

Hey, a question about the Aiptasia product. Noticed that you have to mix the powder. Do you do all at once and let it sit between periods that you need it? Or just mix enough to do the treatment you need at the time? Seems to me it must lose potency or viability if not used for some time, otherwise it would be sold as a liquid and not a powder... Or so you'd think.

I just started the Nitrate destroyer last week. Not all my tanks need it but some do. I had been using Reef-resh for a while and was happy with the results until it started getting insanely hard to replace. Anyhow it's nice to hear that everyone who's tried it is happy with it, and it's cheaper to boot.

Sarah your tank looks great. :cool:

Chaloupa 09-22-2008 11:28 PM

Yeah..that would be the only drawback to the Aiptasia product...you mix it and have to use it quickly.....it says for only 30 days after powder is mixed. But I will see...if I had been thinking I would have measured out what I had...mixed it in a smaller volume and stored the rest...but I wanted to KILL them now...not wait...I don't wait well!

Thanks Tony for the compliment....it is looking good!:biggrin:

Sarah your tank looks terrfiic!
What is that right behind the Banggai in the center of the photo? Hard to see what it is.

It's a Monti cap...came free with my LR many moons ago....have a big huge one at the top of the tank that was not supposed to be there...I keep cutting it off and putting it in the sump...until I got my new lights it was just a chocolate brown cap with blue polyps...now it is a purple with blue polyps...it's kind of pretty now, makes me feel bad about how much I chopped off....I acutally scrapped all of it off once.....when I had the Monti eating Nudi's and several months later...it sprouted back!
