Well I have following this thread and read every post until I was bleary-eyed. I'm very relucant to quickly jump into any new 'fad' or use any type of additive that isn't in accordance with nsw. None-the-less I needed to purchase some VC supplement for my own use and being the 'generous' guy that I am, I decide to share a bit with my tank because of some zoas that I had purchased and were looking very bleak and not opening after an extended period. I have only added small amounts using the build up process detailed in the thread. I'm not even up to a full dosing schedule as of yet.
I think my doubting Thomas syndrome may be weakening. After dosing, the first thing that happened was my nassarium snails all popped up out of the sand like it was a feeding frenzy. By the next day my unresponses zoas have opened up. My tank parameters are keeping pretty much in check, although as others stated, the skimmer started working overtime. The only thing that I can tell that wasn't too happy about the VC addition was my purple slimer which did just that...slimed. Now I hope the VC helps my cold like it did my zoas.
Coincidence? I don't know, but I am going to continue unless I see adverse affects. Pufferpunk, thank you for bringing this to everyone's attention.
Happy Reefing!
I was trying to get out of here to get to work! Remember work?
