I only dose AFR. I love it. Do you too?

 

[Ransom]

Very nice! How much do you dose? What are your parameters? I just started dosing this.

 

[STEEZY]

I dose 5.5ml on my Nuvo 20. For at least a year always that.

Before that my versa dosing pump got a lot of air bubbles and I didn’t know the fix. After I corrected this it’s alway on the money .

Cmon, somebody else has to use AFR and love it? Let’s see your happy tank! We

I’m currently dosing 45 ml of AFR and I def noticed a difference from 2 part. I love as much as my tank. I am thinking about dialing it back and dosing some alk though. I can’t keep my alk steady. Keeps dropping

All for reef + potassium

Nice, how big is your tank?

I had some issues dialing in but at one point my alk started dropping… well it turned out to be bad Hanna reagent and my reactions were actually making it go up. Found out after trying a different batch.

Nice, I don’t know anything about potassium dosing. What do you use to test? Noticeable improvement over AFR on its own?

also wow those are some big colonies!!

I’m using it very impressive product. Parameters are spot on. Key is to have all your parameters where you want them prior to starting AFR. Just follow directions and all is good. No more dosing mag, calcium, carbonate and trace elements. Well worth the price. If you add up all 4 bottles it exceeds cost of one bottle of AFR. 10ml daily for my 65 mixed reef and corals never looked better.

I also use A4R. Agreed with above. Start with parameters where you want them then dose and monitor alk. So far I'm dosing 10ml a day. Keeping alk at 9.0. Tank is still relatively new at 1 year 5 months. Frags are all growing nicely.
I have zero complaints. As I increase dosage I'll look into a pump to automate.

Im using AFR.great product.a tad finicky to dial in initially but 5ml daily is currently holding parameters in check with coral pro salt & 15% weekly waterchange.certainly easier than dosing separately.i use aquavitro fuel at half strength also.ill be adding a twin doser to automate.

I’m running a 130 gallons total. Whoever is using post your tank size and dose amount. I’m curious.

65 gallon mixed reef 10ml a day.
KH=10.8
CA=440
Mag=1320

just tested going to get Red Sea duel dozer next week to dose AFR & Red Sea AB+. another product I think is great. Dose 8ml daily.

 

[areefer01]

It is a great product. I dose 70 ml / day currently in my 210 gallon. At one point I was pushing close to 100 ml / day but dialed it back down and it is holding steady at 70 ml which is nice. I buy the 1600 gram powder and make 3600 ml batches which works out great.

Alright folks if you work for Tropic Marin you must raise your hand!

 

[Muffin87]

What are your ph levels dosing AFR?

I do not.

What are your ph levels dosing AFR?

In my case TM AFR has no impact on my displays ph.

lol I reread my post and it does sound like that. Honestly I was just trying to see others success with it and I thought that would grab people’s attention.

also my tank is super happy and it’s pretty much set and forget . I have a relatively new baby at home and the fact that sometime I don’t test for 3-4 weeks and my alk is always 8.3 to 8.5 every time makes me want to share that experience.
