Supplements

[Khuligirl93]

I'm starting to keep SPS corals, what do you all think are the best supplements for alk, calc and mag? And are there any other must haves?
Also what do you all think about salts that include higher levels of necessary elements like Red Sea coral pro?

I guess to summarize, what is the simplest way to keep the correct levels for stony corals?

Weekly wcs. Start testing, you really don't have a heavy load of corals. Testing is the only way to determine how much of a certain supplement you need

After you start testing and notice a need then take a read of this article.

Ok thanks guys. At work we have all the salifert tests so I'll test my levels on Monday. I'm just concerned because we use a pretty cheap salt- coral life.
