Now a days reefing has come a long way and the varieties of products available has become quite considerable i figured id start this thread to see what other people are using for products and some things they like or dont like about them and possibly open all our eyes to something we may have overlooked ourselves.

For me i use only seachems aqua vitro line for additives i havnt had any issues and seams it takes a smaller dose compared to other brands ive used previously, also any problems i encounter if i call in they will give a day by day plan with step by step instructions on how to get your tank where it should be thumbs up for customer service. Aside from those i have also grown very fond of the polyp labs "reef roids" and "polyp booster" but if you dont monitor carefully and only feed what you need you can very quickly end up with an algae outbreak ( am only using recommended amount with heavily stocked reef) i have noticed that seconds after adding polyp booster tentacles start reaching for the sky knowing whats next..... aside from those i also use vitamin and amino acid supplements with garlic on all my dried seaweed and pellets and soak for 10 minutes before feeding. And lastly i feed the "pe dual pack of cyclopeez and mysis shrimp" am looking forward to seeing what you use and neat things you have noticed as well but bye for now and happy reefing :)
