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

![]() I've been dosing Reefbooster since I started the tank 2 months ago, so I'm not sure what can be attributed to Reefbooster. I do think tank startup has gone extremely smooth though.
I decided to use the Reefbooster right from the start after reading a few threads about the Blue Coral Method. They feed a seafood mush called Papone and amino acids, which they claim feed all the organisms in the tank including bacteria and other organisms that help keep the water clean. I thought Reefbooster should have a similar effect. My SPS corals are still relatively ugly since the tank is very new, but they are starting to come around quite quickly now. I've noticed in the past 2 weeks or so that growth is finally starting to pick up, and colors are getting back to normal again. |

![]() saw the polyp labs thread and thought i should update this one. Since starting the bioclean system I have noticed 2 things.
1. Decrease in hair algae 2. Decrease in valonia I am actually not implementing the system properly, as I did not have my skimmer online for the vast majority of the time (just recently turned it on). I would hesitate to say it was all because of the prodibio, as I think the tank has matured a bit, and i added (around the same time) a rather large longspine urchin + a few trochus. I really like how you only have to dose every 2 weeks, rather than every day. Makes things much easier. For the cost that it takes to run on my tank, I think i'll continue to use it....

![]() I recently stopped Prodibio and started a macro-algae fuge. The macro-algae has Prodibio beat hands down for water quality and tank appearance.
Coral growth may be a bit slower now though, this could be due to a reduction in bacteria in the water, or maybe just the corals reaction to change. I'm going to see how it goes for a couple of months, then I might try feeding Papone to increase growth. |
