What additives do you use in your sps tank?

Hi i am just wondering what you guys out there, who have got sps tanks, what additives you use in your tanks. From ammount of water changes, kalk, ca reactor, coral foods, etc.......

10-20% water changes bimonthly, Kalk Every other night, and C-balance bimonthly

Keeps all my levels in check.. Almost perfectly balanced..

kalk = Kalkwasser I use Mrs Wages Pickling Lime.. i would suggest reading as much as you possibly can before even deciding on using Kalk.. If used incorrectly It can have extremely bad side effects.. You can take a tank that has been running great and turn it into an ever long battle just trying to keep you levels in check.. That said Kalk is a very good thing if used correctly..

so you guys dont use any coral food additives live phyto plex,micro vert from kent marine or a similar product?
 
For food I use Blender Mush made up from an assortment of food this batch has
SW zooplankton
Flake Food
frozen Brine
Mysis shrimp
Frozen Krill
freeze dried phytoplankton

I believe thats all that I put in it.. lol Anyways I feed once a day.. Yes I know its a bit much but they are all happy and my levels are still staying in check so it must not be too bad lol I have like 6 fish

HTH,

coral accel
chroma plex
phyto plex
micro vert
zoo plex
or do you think it would be a waste of time?
