Review of Additives

[klim]

Hi Brothers, I know it is very difficult to review the Additives, but it would really help on New Reefers like me as not to buy some additives which may not work towards the thing they claimed (I have yet to experience that but going to thread, can observed that some Addidtives work better or much better than others)

To cut the story short, please kindly list the products that you are using now and before, if possible add some comments...

Currently I know Aquaz; AquaPharm

Is the above product good? believed both are made from Singapore (anyone to confirmed this?)

This would help refeers to know how to do marketing....thanks for sharing.

The Additives should be all type included for Fishes and Corals, ie. Calcium, Carbonate, Magnesium, Idoide, Strodium and etc...

So how you find the product? Good and Effective? Does it help to maintain your tank health?

For Mg, I use TM only to raise a little and maintain the level and not to raise it when it is way too low.For that I do water change.I have epsom salt but still hesitate to use coz of the sulphate content.

For the SC additives it really is good.BTW all my dry 'dead rocks' I bought are now all covered by coralline algae within two months only.(save money)

I have yet to see any difference in dosing iodine though.

Overall, I am pleased with these products.Although having a CR is ideal but IMO it is also problematic.
