I think zeovit is the best.

I did read that some reefers dose zeovit additives but don't run the method.
Good option

Also how often do you guys dose AA's?? Right now I dose 2 x's a week cyclopsez and coral frenzy

I know I need to read some more but what is AA? It's just food for the corals or what?

Your best Amino acid to dose is in your Flake Food. Most of the non-essential aminos you can get from fish food (from proteins). So stick to getting your fish fat, as the residual outcome of that is the addition of non-essential aminos to the corals.

Ive been using the Zeovit AAs for a long time. At first, I used it before running rest of Zeo. BUt now I run the full system.
Zeovit AAs are great. Elos AAs are popular too and were the other ones I was looking into.
If you arent running a nutrient reduction system, AAs can cause nuisance algae.

what Atomikk said, plus I dose a trace amount of aspartic acid.

After reading Randy's comments I began dosing Aspartic acid about 4 weeks ago. 2x per week at 1/4 tsp dissolved in seawater.
Using full zeovit on 170g total system. Growth and color are good. No change in algae noted.

I vote for none at all.
