Hey Doug!

What goes into your water on a daily basis or at water change time? Whats your trick? You have nice polyp extension and wide variety of colours, and what looks like great growth.

Enzyte....the once a day pill for natural enhancement The commercial was true... the gals really noticed my PE......

No tricks....I follow the directions on the bottles IMO the biggest things are a stable and correct "big three" (Ca, Mg and DKH).... My KZ dosing regiment(I wish I could say "I dont think it has made a difference", but I really think it has)....and the fact that the tank is a year and a half old....

I dose "Randy's recipe" for the "big three", Calcium(in the morning) and DKH (in the evening) every day, Magnesium every two to three days.

KZ dosing is as I said before...by the bottle. K-balance, B-balance, Strontium Komplex, Xtra, Coral Snow, Coral Vitalizer, Sponge Power, Amino Acid Kaliumiodid-flour, and Stylo-Pocci Glow

Right on DOugs thanks again. I broke the bottom off of it to try mounting it flat on a frag discs and am getting a whole bunch of new growth coming off it. Should be a really nice full piece in a year or so.
