Using Polyp Lab System Reef-resh?

My SPS are growing slowly but still do not extend their polyps during the day. I am going to stop using it fpr now. Anyone else changed their minds?

I never noticed any difference in the corals when i used it . I still have half full containers that have been sitting in my fridge for the last year

I hate to say it, but same goes for me. I went through almost 2 complete cycles of Reef-Resh with my 180g tank and I never noticed much difference before/during/after. Ohwell...

looks like you are running UV with it ..
Ozone and or UV will kill most of the bacterial culture you know..

If you check the web site. ozone is ok, UV is not.

I ran with no UV & with/without Ozone. No noticable difference on my tank...

I did run my UV sterilizer while running the Reef-resh. I did as much research as possible before using the product and could not find any info suggesting to d/c the uv sterilizer. I will try without the UV and see if there is any difference.

I'm still seeing positive results and just bought a new supply.

Here is a link with the UV info.

Thanks Bill
I must have been tired when I read the FAQ on the Polyp Lab website. As just mentioned, I will see if turning off my UV helps.

No worries, I hope you see some positive results.
