Recommend me some supplements
 

Hi folks,

Looking to order some supplements for my reef tank, and I am a bit overwhelmed. So many brands and types, and with a big price range. I don't understand what the difference is between the 10$ stuff and the 50$ stuff.

Any help would be appreciated.. Keeping some softies and LPS.

You looking for actinic supplementation or white? LED I assume?

Here are 3 of the solutions we carry:

Are you talking about water suppliments?

OOPs.. Should have been more specific, yes! Water supplements! Calcium, etc... :)

EDIT.. However now I am on your web looking at LEDs.. lol

Dry bulk powder chemicals will be Cheepest
Check out caco3reef.com he has bulk chems for sale I use his calcium
I use baked baking soda for alk. And have lots of mag left over from an old sponsor on the forum who no longer sells products.

HaHa I thought light supplements for some reason.

Have you tested to see what your tank is deficient in?

I am only using IO regular salt, so I figured while I am making an order I should pick up a few things to have here, I was not going to begin "dosing" anything until I gather a better understanding of what needs to be where.

I was just hoping that someone could recommend a good brand, as I see there are so many different ones out there. Liquids, powders, 2 step ones.. All a bit complicated.

That's the rule of thumb,If you can't test for it don't add it:biggrin:

I think somebody else here said so:biggrin:
