well today i just got essential elements bottle add from kent, i don't know yet how will works out for me, it says on the bottle use it every one or two weeks small cup for 50 gal. tank. but i am not sure is it really help my corals and inverts color and shapes? hopefully it will work for my reef tank. any one using this any thoughts?

nothing personal i wouldnt use this unless you are using a denitrifing chamber and are not doing water changes
just about everything in it is in your salt water you make changes with
i would suggest strontium and maybe iodoine depending on what corals you have
i also love the brightwell coral amino to soak my food in

and of course mag alk and cal based on your testing and how much your tank is using

I just finished off the qt bottle we had took me 4 yrs , Its a good product but unless you have high demand its not needed and its never needed at the recommended dosage they tell you on the label Its almost like they want you to burn through it really fast (: I use about 5 mil per hundred gallons every few months , I do have a denitrater coil and I do not do water changes and thats all I ever add aside from the calcium and Kalk reactor's and what they supply in the way of elements .

i will use only ones in a while may be two times a mount. i am doing WC every week and i use really good salt and ro/di water. but still i want my corals have everything they need and make them happy all the time...
