I use coral snow and I think it works as I only feed it at night.. Hard to tell if it in fact is really doing a lot. My corals are always growing.. so.. its a toss up..

Coral snow just binds the floating particles in the water and helps the skimmer grab them better. Thus the water becomes sparkling clear. CS is one of those products that works flawlessly. Just dose half the recommended dosing. Zeovit products are extremely concentrated (2ml is enough to make my 70 gallon water cloudy).

I really like coral snow. It is a flocculant. I use it after I clean my tank once a week to clear up the water. It really does make the water crystal clear.

I don't use it everyday as it likely takes food out of the water column, which may or may not effect your corals (depending on what corals you have).

So I guess add Coral Snow after a water change would be a good idea then.

There you go Great stuff to use after wc. But you can use it once in a while too (like 2x every week) if you want.
