I have a mixed reef with heavy sps. Here is my latest ICP test. MicroE Elements - Aquaforest seems to have EXACTLY what I am low on except for vanadium which is already high. Any issues with dosing this product instead of each one individually even though it will increase my vanadium? Can I dose this and use something else to reduce my vanadium or should I just not worry about it? Since there is a product that literally seems made for my issue I either assume this is some “Big ICP test and AquaForest conspiracy” and they are in cahoots and manipulate the results to push this specific product or this is just a common problem and they created a product specifically for this. Thoughts?

Hey Randy. Wondering if you could chime in here. Is this a common “issue” when using All for Reef or have you heard of these elements being “low” in the mix? I only dose AFR and do not do water changes because Alk 8.5, calc 450 and mg 1450 are dead on all the time and do not fluctuate at all. Tank is just over a year and a half old. Everything else from the ICP was perfect. NO3 is 3 and PO4 is .05.

When I say “issue” I don’t mean it’s an actual issue just wondering if that is a trend or you have heard about this same thing with those specific elements considering AF has a product that is basically the “snake oil” I need.
