I finally bought some ESV products.. I've heard really good things about them and finally decided to try them... right now, I'm currently using:

ESV B-Ionic Calcium Buffer System http://www.esvco.com/prod6.html

ESV B-Ionic Magnesium http://www.esvco.com/prod10.html

also, I finally decided that this the best time for me to start studying the newly set up 28g by doing a little more parameter testings.. I hope the above products will help in keeping the Alk, Cal, Mg, pH levels where they should be... :)

any other input will be appreciated about these products... I'm currently following the manufacturer's recommended dosing..

Thanks...

I did in the past, but with the cost (or lack there of) of making my own two part additives, I have gone that route for quite a while. When I used them, they have always seemed to be high quality.

I'm using it now since my Co2 is out. Won't have time to refill in for a couple weeks. I have the ca, alk, and mg gal containers.

hehehe.. so far, all I've been reading is "still" good... ;)

I'm currently dosing the manufacturer's suggested dose daily.. it's only been a few days... maybe this time, I'll have more coraline algae on the LR.... :D

You can't use the manufacturer's suggesting dosing as your guideline. You need to test your parameters and figure from that your daily dosing.

When you gonna get a doser Marv? I have a feeling it would help me out, as I'm too lasy to dose things manually every day. Ever since I redid my tank, my growth rate has gone from great to zero, and I wonder if it is because of this.
