Question on reef supplements

[Nathan4Wvu]

Hey guys since I am a little new to sps keeping I was curious what kind of supplements people are using to keep SPS happy and health.

Currently, I'm only using a kalk reactor and adding the recommended amount of microbactor 7 to get bacteria levels up since the tank is only 2.5 months old. My growth is looking good and I would like to boost it even more and feed them.

What I'm considering.
ZeoVit Trace Elements Complex

or

Seachem Reef Plus

Any help is appreciated!!!

All I used is kalk in mt ATO. I also feed the fish and sps well and dose AAs. Many people have had great results with the Zeovit system and MB7. I have not tried these yet. I did vodka for a while but was unhappy with the results. Stay way from the different "trace elements". Use a good reef salt, do regular water changes and keep dosing kalk to keep Ca and alk in check. Mag may be needed as well depending on the salt you use and your tanks needs. The AAs I use are Seachem Reef Plus or Aquavitro Fuel. I have been happy with these so far in the past 2 years I have been using them, I saw better colors in my sps.

Agreed with above. I have healthy colonies growing and the only thing I add to the tank is clean water and a good water change every week. Quality salt is very important imo. If I do add anything to the tank it is very little mag to boost it up a little. Also if your not testing for it, don't add it to your tank, you will just waste your money and mess up your water in the process. Give yourself some time to do more research and learn your reef, you can tell when it wants you
