    I use the following supplements on my 55 gallon LPS & Softie reef tank:

    Per Feeding:
    A squirt - Boyd Enterprises - Vita-Chem
    1 ml Brightwell Aquatics ZooPlanktos-L (500-2Kum)
    3 ml Brightwell Aquatics Micro Diet

    Every other day:
    5 ml Brightwell Aquatics Liquid Reef
    or
    5 ml Purple Up

    What do you use?

    Edit:
    My fish eat gut loaded brine shrimp or mysis shrimp

    water changes....

    i dont dose any chemicals i dont need. all my params stay in check from the routine water changes.

    feed very sparingly and i use a varied diet of rods food, brine shrimp, krill, spirulina, and some garlic pellet food

    right now I am dosing with vodka to get my nitrates down (skimmer malfunction causing massive nitrate spike)
    I dose either pickling lime or RBS 2 part depending on my kH level. There is no set schedule with me to dose...I test almost every other day and dose accordingly depending on the results.
    I dose calcium and magnesium

    I have a sea apple and psychodelic cucumber so I dose live phyto target feeding every couple days. I use coral freenzy a couple times a week for my SPS and LPS
