Kalk and AF

[fessoclown]

Hi,
My tank is roughly 666L total volume.
ALK- 7.8 Salifert
CAL-430 Salifert
MAG- 1450- Salifert
P04 - 0 - Hanna
NITRATE - .02 Salifert

I am currently(about 1 month) using Probiotic Salt, Coral A, B, E and V as well as Pro Bio-S. I dose a wee bit of vinegar as my carbon source because NP-Pro isn't available on Amazon.ca (I am in Canada and it is quite cost prohibitive. The shipping costs more than the product and I just can't bring myself to pull the trigger)

Anyway,
I use Kalk to keep my Calcium and Alk stable. I am able to do so for now. Once the kalk can't keep up I will switch to component1+2+3+
What is the recommendation for those who use Kalk in terms of trace elements? I was considering using Components Strong. Would that be the correct route?

If I understand you correctly, this is what you would need to do if you wanted to cover all trace under the AF umbrella from a trace mineral standpoint, if using kalk to cover alk and ca..

iodum Supplement for blue and purple colour enhancement 1 drop per 100 l
strontium Supplement for skeletal strength and branching 1 drop per 100 l
fluorine Supplement for blue and white colour enhancement 1 drop per 100 l
kalium Supplement for pink and red colour enhancement 1 drop per 100 l
iron Supplement for green colour enhancement 1 drop per 100 l
micro e Complex of heavy metals for marine organisms 1 drop per 100 l

Plus
Magnesium
Reef Mineral Salts

These are all present and alk and ca in the premixed formula. This is also the same in the dry lineup excluding component strong.

You Can also use Components Strong.
