polyp Labs Reef Roids

[Alopez0105]

Ya I'm excited to see growth and color change. What times you guys found is best to feed. In the morning befor the lights are on or during sun set clues or after lights go out ?

usually feed a little after feeding the fish. some corals after lights out too. really depends on my schedule

I've seen crazy good growth with Reef Roids. I'm a big fan.

 

[Tyler Collinske]

Ok awesome ya I'll probably do something similar then

 

[FranklinDattein]

I use it for years and recommend. That is how I keep Gonis and NPS like spider sponge.

Seems to feed everything then. Not a lot of product out there that can say that.

I feed randomly twice a week sometimes three times depending on visitors lol

It is pretty good indeed, but in my tank not everything responds to it, including hammers, torchs, mushs and SPS.

 

[Tyler Collinske]

Ya my mushrooms haven't responded just about everything els has though

 

[ahiggins]

Awesome good to know! How can you tell if the bounce responds to them I tried spot feeding mine and I couldn't tell if it was ratting any lol mine is a baby still about the size of a nickel.

Im not sure if the smaller ones react. I have a bounce mushroom thats about the size of a half dollar that brings its edges up and closes around the food. I also have a discosoma thats about 4" and he goes ape for reef roids. As soon as I put it on his disk he closes around it. Heres a cool video of how they eat:

Honestly, reef roids are my go-to's for coral feeding. As a treat to mix it up sometimes Ill thaw out some LRS reef frenzy in there but my corals definitely react better to the roids.

 

[Tyler Collinske]

Awesome! Ya maybe mine just needs to get a little bigger! Thanks for sharing that video and responding!

I like them but it seems they encrust on my glass after feedings.

 

[Tyler Collinske]

Do you mix it with water befor feeding

 

[RamsReef]

Do you mix it with water befor feeding

Probably why this happened.

 

[ahiggins]

Thats odd, I mix 3:1 water:roids and even the fish want to eat it lol

I usually just put a spoonful of rr to a cup of water . I would say 1/3 is alot .

not really-I use 3 ml water to 3 scoops (probably like 0.5gram scooper) I spot feed everything with those.

I only use a quarter tsp for my 55g. Im going to up my feedings to daily though and every other day use polyp booster. Ive seen no excess nutrients or algae feeding every other day. And my zoanthids r popping new heads daily.

 

[Tyler Collinske]

How is that polyp booster?

How is that polyp booster?

Honestly cant say any huge positives or negatives so far. Unlike most others i see no reaction from my coral when i add 6 drops. So going to start doing half a dropper see what happens. My acans favias and dendros are in feed mode 24/7 so i dont get much of a reaction. Aside from everything being super fluffy and "hungry" til i dose again...
