I was wondering what trace elements you guys use to add when running a calcium reactor and don’t do a lot of what changes ? I haven’t done a water change in over 2 month since switching tanks and I was getting a lot of algae because I had bottomed out n and p and now that I have done a water change my algae is almost gone .

I use the Korallen Coral System 1-4. Been working nicely for me.

I do 1-10% WC a month on all 3 systems.
I dose esv 1&2 and DSR EZTrace daily. Strontiun once a week.
On my 80g total 120 I just setup my old 3171 carx and will still add as above to this system. Its the same system of my 120 I just downsized the height.
I ran the 120 this way for 33 months with good success and one ICP test at 2 years that said dosing was keeping my mag, strontium, and potassium, at desired levels.
On the 120 I did go 18 months from start running the same trace schedule with no WC's.
