Ninjabeaver Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 If there was the perfect supplement I think we would all be using it...so the answer is NO supplement. I do however dose amino acids with acropower. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Dog Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Keeping alkalinity, calcium, and mag stable.....those supplements are what's needed to keep sps ALIVE and happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackice Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I agree there countless whys to do it. You ask 10 people how they run there tanks your going to get 10 different answers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badxgillen Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Wait -What, the rules have changed? Is it a contest now? Hmmmm, asides from flow, I would say stability is key with your carbonates,calcium, magnesium, and salinity. A good lighting system that brings out the best in the zooxanthellae and fluorescent pigments. After that a different recipe of cocktails can be used to keep the corals happy, I use brightwells amino acids and lipids on top of the 3 part dosing, and don't forget to feed those corals now and again. And then there is the calcium reactor...I would say almost all of the people who posted are very successful SPS keepers all with slightly different methods, I can't wait to see the "proper" answer to this one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-Dog Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 How about salt? No coral would be happy or even be ALIVE without adding salt to the water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arsonmfg Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 (edited) Here is the thing I would like to know what kind of supplement will make all the corals open and look happy First 10 people get it right will be on the list This is a Aussie tricolor tenuis Yellow and green body with blue tip Bright green scallop Polyp are green and blue Show me your knowledge people You should probably clarify this a little more. IMO people should just post a picture of their tank... That's the easiest way to tell if someone is capable of keeping acros.
