Calcium Reactor (as you know)

Every 3 days I dose:
ZEOvit Pohl's Xtra
ZEOvit B-Balance (Will discontinue it's use after this bottle is empty)
ZEOvit Coral Vitalizer (Thumbs up!)
ZEOvit Potassium Iodide Fluoride (Thumbs up!)
ZEOvit Sponge Power (Nothing to do with SPS, just bought it to get free shipping. Regardless, it's worthless)
Aquavitro Fuel

Feeding:
Brine Shrimp Direct's Golden Pearls (GP) 5-50 micron
--Mix this up in a small squeeze bottle, shake to re-hydrate, and squirt over the top of all my colonies (with pumps/power heads off) and let sit for 20 minutes before turning pumps back on.

Sunlight man, that's the best thing I ever did for my coral. Smile

Food also helped my coral grow faster and have more color. There are all kinds of foods, from Golden Pearls to Marine Snow, but IMO phytoplankton which feeds the live zooplankton that coral love to eat, was the best food.
