What do you dose your tank with?

[newnanoboy]

Hey guys, i'm wondering what i should buy to dose my 28g jbj. Currently i'm using kent liquid pro buffer, calcium, stontium & molybdenum and iodine. I bought these when i first started up, but i'm running low and want to try something better... Any suggestions? I was wondering about the all-in-one stuff or the Part A/B solution. All opinions are greatly appreciated. Oh, and this is mostly a soft coral tank.

Only dose things you NEED to dose for. And make sure if dosing you have some method of testing your water for it. Bad things can happen when dosing incorrectly.

Jedi nailed it though, test, then determine what you need to dose, then keep testing

1+ for Jedi's comment. I did the same thing as you did NewNano, but soon learned that the Moly and Iodine dosing were not necessary. As for the Kent CA, it did nothing for my tank. Look into the Warner Marine products if you need to dose anything. (emphasis on NEED). Just my opinion(s).

thanks primetime

I am using Warner Marine for my 2 part Ca. I am also on the Prodibio system...

I use WM for Aminos and Prodibio system as well (4th week into this). CA reactor.

I use Kent for most of my supplies - just my fews cents $$$$ - but, test your water at least once a week and more if your PH keeps dropping off.

I have had great results w/ b-ionic 2part w/ a little Kent coral-vite. I test to see how much is needed (if any).
