Does anyboby use prodibio with any other ulns products?

I'm currently using bioptim & biodigest every 2 weeks & use zeostart2 twice a day........i have been doing this since i started the tank up 6 months back........but tbh i haven't been that impressed with the results & wondered what other products people used with prodibio.
 
It seems like a reasonable question for the Advanced Topics section to me. I've never used Prodibio, though, so I don't have much to contribute to this post. You could also try the Reef Discussion section, or the section called The Reef Chemistry Forum.
 
I have used prodibio for quite a while with very good results. I use biodigest weekly along with daily vodka/sugar dosing. It takes a bit of time to see results, but it has really help keep my nitrate/phosphate in check and algae low in the tank. I have a heavily stocked FOWLR with the messy eaters in my signature, except for the tang. Replacing the tang with a one spot foxface and adding three yellow tail damsels to finish off the tank who will begin quarantine tomorrow. I also feed extremely heavily with two feedsing of large NLS pellets and two large meaty feedings of homemade food daily. I think to obtain the best results the use of carbon dosing makes a big difference.

I had real problems with my nitrate and phosphate and resulting major algae issues. I started carbon dosing which helped but did not get me out of the woods. I then added prodibio into the mix combined with aggressive lighting period reductions and had a major algae die off. I accukulated substantial detrus durign this period, and I did notice that a day following each prodibio dose the detrus would greatly reduce. It took about 1 montth, and my tank was clean.

At their worst, my nitrates measured over 100. My nitrates now measure under 20. No idea about what my phosphate measured then or now because I never tested. But I know I had them based on the major amount of hair algae I had.
 
Cheers guys.

I'm looking at people who use prodibio with KZ products or FM products.
I have just ordered some coral snow & coral vitalsier.
The prodibio had done some good some of my corals are pretty well colored although i do still have bryopsis & hair algae
