Hmmm. Did my first water change with RBS last weekend and lost one small poci colony to RTN and have another on the go in the past week. Polyp extension on my Acros has been reduced all week. Coincidence? Leary of using RBS now that I hear this. Was using Ocean Pro.

Sorry to hear of your losses Christy and Jason.

Default RBS water change

i read that when using RBS you only do 5% weekly water change for best results.
what are you(s) doing for water changes--amounts etc?
(i ask because i am thinking of going Zeovit route)

I change 10% every other week with RBS. I've never had a problem with it, the corals are all fine. I suppose if the environment was way off using some other salt, that switching could be a problem, but I changed out 25g my first switch to this salt and had no issues.
