I drip a bit of Lugols Solution every couple of days simply because I have it so I might as well use it. I try to maintain my calcium and alkalinity with a Ca Reactor and a Kalk Reactor but when things slip a bit I'll use Baking Soda, Calcium Chloride and Magnesium Chloride Hexahydrate/ Magnesium Sulfate to adjust it back.

I use the balling light system from Fauna Marine with aProfilux doser so I dose calcium chloride, sodium bicarbonate and magnesium chloride/sulfate hexa/heptahydrate with the trace B solutions (Barium/strontium, iodine/flourine, other traces) and am very happy with the growth I get from my corals.
I also dose vodka to help lower nutrients constantly stirred up by my two jawfish. I've recently considered using a potassium supplement, and maybe starting on coral snow since I have so many suspended particles in the watre colum all the time.

I use Tailored Aquatics' Calcium Plus and Reef Magnesium. Other than that, water changes replaces everything else (I do them weekly), but I need to use these since my salt is deficient in both
