well long time since I updated this. So here is some interesting stuff in the break

I am stiill using the Fauna Marin Balling method as i do believe they one of the best salts you can get. But recently when i replenished the chambers i did not add the trace elements feeling they had little effect on the system colour.

The results were gradual but still noticeable. My pink birds nest went from white tip to brown and lost a lot of colour and my green hairy milli lost a good percentage of colour.

I beleive this was due to not adding the elements, thats the only real change made, so i have put them back and in a week I have seen colouration come back.

My own personal conclusion all be it limited in time, is that if doing the FM balling to get full effect you really do need to add the Trace B's

I will continue on this path a report back and I am sure I will see full re colouration. I will also agree anyone reading the whole thread on RC has seen me change from one thing to another, probably not the best way to get stability, so this is what I have decided to stick to and why

ULNS - ProdiBio - ease of use, great success in my experience and gives good overall coral health.
Mineral supplement - Fauna Marin Balling with Trace elements. great growth, no risk of contaminated salts and Trace elements do seem to have a colouration effect.
Pottasium - as yes not started this, to be honest not had the time, and i think it is important to get the tank stable before adding anything else.
