![]() Well im on my 3 batch of food with the Ultra clams and the ultra min S mixed feeding 2 times per day or 3 depending if Im not at work...
![]() All is going great so far. the polyps are getting there, Im seeing a bit of Red turf algae coming back from the 120 where i had it bad... I hope when i get the other stuff that Mike is sending me to trial that the bacterica will eat away the big phosphates that i have I measured and my PO 4 was like .01 so not to much but enough I guess .... looking forward to trying out the new trial stuff....

![]() Cut back to feeding once a day and also stop the extra MinS in the system, the corals can take what is already mixed in with the Clam mixture.
Too much feeding can lead to a build up of nutrients, the Ultra Bak I am sending will build up your bacteria levels to burn this off. I assume you are doing maintenance water changes ![]() Other products being sent tomorrow - 24 hours snow storm here today! |

![]() This will help reduce your PO4.
Red turf algea reacts to raises in PO4 so before you do your water change on Saturday do another PO4 heat test. Then next week you will have the Bak and can start reducing those nasty nutrients. ![]() |

![]() Getting some Turf algae now on the rocks, Mike at Aqua digital told me that PO 4 will cause Red Turf then so once i get the new Trial stuff like BAK and other stuff I will start to dose that that has been stated to me and ease off on the Min S to 1 ml to allow the BAK to eat away at the PO4 the little that i have i guess is making a huge mess in my tank........
so Doing is been put on hold for the separate Ultra min S and i will be just feeding 1 time per day with the clam food and Ultra Min S added to mix the food.
