My experience is that I don't see any difference using it after 2 months. I got better results from adding UV/Violet LEDs to my lighting.

Wanna bring one back from the dead? I just bought A and B and wanted to see if people are still using it?

I have been using a and b For several months. acropower prior for a few months and noticed nothing with that. Within a few days of switching to a and b I saw much better polyp extension esp in milli's. My colors were already very good imo.

Impressed with that I started using the abcd additives too. After about a month of that I began getting some rtn. That was last month. lost over 40 acros since then. Triton test just revealed copper and zinc are elevated. I have no idea if that is related but I'm slowly ruling other things out.

I don't know how to take clear pics without them appearing washed out blue, but I did take some iPhone pics of some frags that I cut a couple weeks ago under normal lighting.

The color shows up pretty good without any actinics here...
A clear orange plastic will filter out the blues in your tank. Or you can get one specifically for taking pics of aquarium to filter out the blues but all it is a a Clear orange peice of plastic.

I only use REDSEA A&B coral Nutrient and my corals seem to love it! I have been using this for about 5 months and I add very little only 5mls every other day to my system Also, you only use very little of this stuff which goes a long way. All of my parameters are within check, so I would HIGHLY recommend this product!

120 Mixed Reef

I just started using it on my 120 gallon as well. Will only be putting in 6ml's of each every other day. Will update my findings in the next week or so.

Ok, I have a major green hair algae bloom. I am running NoPox and just started Vibrant. should I stop the reef energy until the algae is in control?
