Sorry still learning..

doesnt the Iodi+ supply potassium ? or is there a different potassium?

 

[AQD_ottawa]

Iodi+ provides Iodine.

I am in talks with ProdiBio to make also a Potassium supplement and heavy metal seperate supplement.

 

[joe_dejesus]

what test kits are available to test for this?

 

[AQD_ottawa]

iodine test kit is available

I feel ya, but it can't hurt to try!:fish1:

You create THAT one and I'd say you'll be set for life. I think we ALL want that or at least the majority of us. I'll be watching for your Coral Eye Candy Mode update thread

Although on Docs orders to stay away from TV's and computer screens while my eyes recover, I just had to update this thread as I have seen lots of RC chatter about ProdiBio and wished to fill in some gaps. (larry )

I have been solely using ProdiBio for some weeks now after dropping all other elements. Initially my change was brought on by an increasing Cyano issue. Once I started on ProdiBio the Cyano did not go away immediately but here is a brief dosage and history thus far.

I stopped everything other than balling and started with the Bio Digest and BioPtim, I also added the strontium. The reef booster was not implemented until I felt I had turned the corner in the cyano.

After 3 weeks of dosing 1 vial a week of each the Cyano was starting to show good signs of receeding, at this point I learnt about the effects Iodine has on Cyano so made sure no extra iodine was being added to the system.

After some more time the Cyano was at a very low level, but as Patience is not my middle name I blasted the remainder with Chem clean (red slime remover). Due to not having very much Cyano left at this point thanks to the ProdiBio I did not have the huge DOC issues you can get from this product and the REDOX level only dropped from 447mV to 440mV. If I was patient for another 2 weeks the Prodi would for sure have finished the job off on its own, that there is no doubt.

My thoughts of ProdiBio are this - if you want by far the easiest ULNS method possible for any size tank, do not like daily dosing and like the idea of cracking a glass vial once a week, then ProdiBio is well worth a shot.

I will be now resuming ReefBooster and also the Iodi+ from Prodi, I also as reported above will be soon adding some Potassium to the mix if the system calls for it.

The system I beleive now needs about 3 months to give a decent evaluation but from results thus far, Prodibio is damn hard to beat!

If anyone wants to try it out please drop us a line as we will be offering up the kits for all USA members.

thanks michael....LOL

the tank upgrade happens tomorrow....

I am not going to put the np pellets on line...

going exclusively prodibio...

here is the confusion on my end...

new tank is 350-400 us gallons...

reading the prodibio website and then the boxes dosing info conflicts...

what is the proper dosing to use for my setup? I am thinking the pro since its one vial..but is it too much?

also with the migration to the new setup..some rock will move but some ceramic...what prodibio should i add to jump start the system??

 

[AQD_ottawa]

Last post as must rest my eyes

Prodibio uniformed the dosage recently

for your system 4 of each vials every 15 days OR 2 every week, or you can get the pro range then just one vial every 15 days of each.

 

[joe_dejesus]

are you adding any food to tank? some use reefchilli and there are a few others...


PS I also wish I can take a better photo of the tank! LOL

 

[Stoneyscoral]

Hey Larry, I thought you were using Zeovit?? Last week you reported great success?!?

 

[larryfl1]

Just the zeovit additives. They have helped the corals but I started seeing algae slime starting to grow

 

[Stoneyscoral]

Red slime similar to what Michael is experiencing now?
