![]() My experience with reef-resh
I started these products 8 week ago in my 175g fishless reef tank. After the first 2 weeks I had out of control bio films, yellow brown snot everywhere polyp lab said it was probably because there were no fish to eat it. After 6 weeks there wasn't any noticable difference with my tank. I still had a few spots of cyano, macro algae was still growing and there was no change in my coral growth or colour. Keep in mind that there are no fish in this tank. The only food was the reef-resh products and some mysis, spot fed to my open brain every 2nd or 3rd night and I was doing 20g water changes every 2 weeks. The christmas tree worms were the only things to show better growth. After 6 weeks I stopped using the stuff and now with the exception of yellow/brown snot lingering there is no bleaching of corals or cyano exploding everywhere. A waste of money for me ![]() Does any one want to buy a few months worth of reef-resh ![]() Last edited by marie; 06-13-2006 at 01:29 AM. |

![]() I get this kind of bacteria growth when I over do it with the vinegar in kalkwasser.
It only shows up in the grow tank (no fish). I vacuum it off along with the snail poops.

![]() Growth looks normal for 7 weeks, could be better could be worse.. all depends on lighting. as for color to tell you the truth the first pic looked way better be for you started, the second pick almost no change maybe slightly better in the before.. but both corals had better polyp extension in the before pics and overall looked better to me.

Hmmm Acetic acid, is also know as Vinager, and sence I can't see them using any of the other acetates in tanks it must be sodium acetate. Steve

![]() I thought I'd bring this thread back to life with my own experience with this product. I started using it in the first week of January 07. Here are some before & after shots. After having used it for 5 months I am not sure I'd want to stop.
