Additives/supplements for fowlr tank

Pls advise which supplements and additives I should use in my fish with live rock tank in order to improve it more. I have 75 gallons tank with sump
 
If you are only doing fowl water changes alone should suffice. Corals on the other hand is a different story.
 
I've used kent trace elements, but some say it's pointless...
 
Actually I m fed up to see my same tank. Guys pls advise me what changes I bring in my tank?
 
RO/DI water, a good name brand salt mix and regular small water changes, thats it.

It depends on your set-up and what you want to do.

You could introduce some mushrooms or GSP. They are pretty low maintenance, or even no maintenance over what you do for your FOWLR.

You could also introduce some macroalgae.

Or, like most people who start with FOWLR eventually do, start looking into transforming to a reef tank.
 
I dont have much to convert into reef. But I do water change every fortnightly 20 percent. I do have mushrooms in my tank
 
GSP = Green Star Polyps. AKA starburst polyps, Briareum sp. Some people don't like them in a true reef tank because they are so hardy and fast growing and can overgrow other coral.
Should look good with mushrooms in a FOWLR tank, though.
