Starting Prodibio soon

Got it in the mail today, didn' realize how small these things were. gave the tank a good scrubbing, and will be dosing the first does on the weekend (want to start it on the 1st). Quite excited to see how this goes.

I'm pretty interested to see how this goes too. These dosing "systems" fascinate me for some reason.

I've been using Prodibio since May. In my old 72G I did it the "careful" way. Started with Biodigest and Bioptim, and once my nitrates started to drop I added Reefbooster. If my algae increased I stopped the Reefbooster.

When I started my new 180G 2 months ago I decided to follow Prodibio's instructions and see what happened.

I have been dosing 1 Biodigest and 4 Bioptim every 2 weeks on Thursday, and 2 Reefbooster every Sunday.

Nitrates peeked at 2.5 ppm and are now at .2. Algae is starting to decrease. The new tank cycle went really smooth and I only have 1 small (but healthy) patch of cyano.

I think if you just dose the whole system as it is meant to be used your tank will adjust to it with time and will be healthier in the end.

Why do you use dose 4 bioptim and 1 digest? Isn't it supposed to be 1 digest to 2 bioptim?

1 Biodigest for up to 1000 ltr
1 Bioptim per 200 ltr.
I have a total of 800 ltr in my system

Your right.
Have you seen any real differences since you been dossing Reefbooster?
