Have you done a water change recently? I would try a large water change and then follow up with a ICP Mass Spec from Oceamo. If you are doing the cipro treatment, perhaps do this after the last Cipro dose.

To give you a sense of what happens with space, take a look at my aquascape 3 yrs ago, and then today.

I would probably choose B, since your rock is more spread out and you are growing sticks that will reach out and touch each other. Both options look great.

I should say that dose the ATI Essentials Pro 2 part, in addition to the Captiv8 products. The ATI Essentials stuff is like Triton, but comes in fewer bottles and is cheaper. You can find the ATI 2 part at prettyucj any of the local shops or online.

@reefrun I uploaded my presentation slides to this post. You can download the Captiv8 ICP calculator tool here: https://www.captiv8aquaculture.com/copy-of-captiv8-home You can purchase supplements and the $20 trace element pack that I mentioned here: https://www.saltwateraquarium.com/reef-blueprint-isol8-minor-and-trace-element-pack-100g-captiv8-aquaculture/ You can purchase Oceamo ICP tests here 1) ICP-OES: https://andremueller.e-junkie.com/product/1758006/Reef-Moonshiner26230393Bs-ICP-OES-Test 2 ICP-MS https://andremueller.e-junkie.com/product/1758008/Reef-Moonshiner26230393Bs-ICP-MS-Test As I said at the meeting, you can use any ICP test for the trace element calculator. Travis/Upscales carries the ATI ICP test and other local stores also carry ATI or Triton. Any one of these will work. My own preference is Oceamo because they offer Mass Spec analysis as well as standard ICP. I'm happy to answer answer questions in this thread. Please tag me so I see it.

Hi All, We're going to have a brief presentation and Q&A on dosing trace elements based on ICP results at 2:00 PM during the Upscales Fish and Reptiles club meeting. The meeting will run from 1-3 PM. I'll be discussing how I use ICP results and Captiv8/Reefblueprint products to tweak the trace elements on the below mixed reef. I hope to see many of you there! Also, don't forget about the raffles and group buys at the meeting. You won't want to miss it! Links to posts on Raffles and Group Buys at the meeting.

This is amazing John.

Good question, Mark. @SuncrestReef do you know how to check this? It still shows "supporting member" under your avatar so it looks like it is still valid, but I'm not sure how to see the date of renewal.
