I want to know whay you all think. I'm thinking of starting my new setup with Red Sea foundation for the balance and added microelements. My last system used BRS soda ash and calcium chloride and I felt my SPS were lacking on minor elements. What I like about Red Sea is that it is easy to dose with no guess work. It's also interesting that they claim to dose 1ml of each coral colors for every 10ml of calcium dosed.
Who uses the Red Sea foundation and coral colors program?

Very cool. I've heard all good things about it too. I can't wait to start using the full line.
In the past I've used seachem calcium and alk powder and my corals were much more colorful and healthy when using those than they were on BRS additive. Seachem's stuff had other elements besides carbonate and calcium which is why the corals I believe were much healthier compared to the sterile soda ash and calcium chloride.

I used it before, but once you opened the bottles you have to keep it refrigerated or in a cool are or the heat will make it go bad. The products are great, but i got tired of taking it in out of the frig when i need to use it. I've gotten lazy and switched to 2 parts esv with ME corals poly xtender and kz potassium. All 3 products are more concentrated, so you don't have to dose as much as red sea.

I use the reef foundation powder and coral colors a,b,c,and d. I love it I have been using it for over a year now and haven't looked back, one of my buddies has suggested AquaForest as well I might try them out, they have a 3 part system sold in 5l jugs it's $50 for all you need, but as for the Red Sea reef foundation I love it and my coral couldn't be happier either
