Checked the tank on my way to work this morning – totally cleared up. So, good to know. Dose Reefbooster at night, otherwise you may be staring at a cloudy ass aquarium . I think I’ll use one of the ‘feed’ programs on my Aquacontroller to shut down the skimmer and carbon and have them [...]

This morning added a vial of Biodigest. One thing I have started to notice after adding Biodigest or Bioptim to the tank is that the water becomes crystal clear and seems to retain this sparkling clarity for a few days.

Alkalinity ~ 6 on Elos, ~ 6.5 on SeaChem. Bumped up the ESV a touch. Here’s a photo. Same as I remember, one looks like mustard. Only gave it ~2.5 / 3 months the first time. The supply below should be fine for a few months. I’ll re-order once I see how the dosing schedule [...]

This page will be to document the effects of Prodibio on my reef tank. I’m doing it here instead of starting a new thread on a moderated forum, because those threads have a tendency to get shut down for one reason or another, and I don’t want it to be viewed the wrong way. Not [...]
