How would I use this if I only have a small amount of coral now and want to go to a full out reef tank in the future. I dont want to do this the wrong way as Ive seen too much money and lives(coral) lost when people just throw 394839 corals in at once.

At the moment im down to a leather.. green star polyps and kenyaii. 125g tank with AquaLight Pros 72" 150W... got the lights for free.

It is impossible to overdose prodibio, so start as your would with any system

1 vial for every 50 gal of water every two weeks other than bio digest which is one vial per every 250 gal

Should I run this for a few weeks before adding anything?
Skimmer always be turned off for the dosing for 6-12hrs?

This depends on yoru current nutrient load

PO4
NO3

also you need to make sure your mineral levels are correct

DKH - 7-8
MG - 1280 -1350
Ca - 380 - 430

But my concern is you said you had lost a lot of sps, if this was due to a pathogen then Prodi will not stop the same pathogen coming back for a second course.

Have been using bioptim for 6 weeks and just started with reef booster. I am also using herbtana due to a finicky powder blue tang. Does anybody see a conflict in these products or should I continoue with the regular regiments as per normal
