reef plus

so i went to a lfs and they recommended reef plus, its full of amino acids... said it will help with growth and act like steroids, just wanted to hear everyones thoughts

 

I have used it on and off as a soak for my food before I feed my fish. May be just piece of mind but I think it works well, especially since traces and other important elements/vitamins get removed, absorbed or adsorbed so quickly!

 

I've also use it but I can't tell what it does really, but you never know

 

We use it here at home and at the shop also But don't follow the label it will feed the hell out of algae. It is best to soak the food as mentioned but only a few drops and let it set a 1/2 or more .

 

I've heard really good things about it. I use the Zeovit Amino Acids and wouldn't live without them. I noticed a remarkable positive difference in my corals when I started using it
But Zeo might play a large roll in making it more available to the corals rather than algae.

you say let it soak for 1/2... 1/2 what?

 

OMG TANGSTER, YOUVE SOLVED MY HAIR ALGAE PROBLEM! Didn't even think about it being the probably reason of my excess Hair algae growth, but my hair algae really started when i started dosing reef plus now that i think of it.... And I definitely use it as directed... or more .... Wow. Karma to you for pointing it out- going to try holding off on it for a few weeks and see what happens.

BTW, reading the back of it... says there is copper in it.. whats the deal?

 

Unless you are very low nutrient, ala heavy GFO, RDSB, Zeo, C-Dosing, what have you... there is likely plenty of nitrogen in your tank to keep everything happy. All it will do is fuel additional algae growth.

If you are low nutrient check out there aqua vitro line... i like fuel much better than reef plus. JMO.
