Potassium dosing ?

[150er]

I got a bottle of Potassium from my friend, and he told me that will help with the coloration of corals.
It is K+ Strong from Zeovit.
I am not full Zeovit user, just dose few to replenish supplements.
Is this one any good in this one ???

you should get potassium iodide if your blues are looking dull. helps with purples as well. read on zeovit that regular potassium is a lil different? Whatever. regular potassium is used for pinks and reds in montis and birdsnest type corals including pocci's. if youre doing weekly water changes i dont think its necessary to supplement

k+ is the reg potassium

never used supplements except for alk/calc/ and sometimes mag. I do a water change every 2 weeks.. Corals are doing fine. IMO i think supplements are just a sales gimmick.. plus don't dose what you cant test for.

not all are gimmicks!... when you have a overstocked tank full of thriving corals some elements do get depleted faster than others... sometimes water changes can make up for it sometimes the consumption is more that what water changes can replace or the hobbyist just doesn't want to do as many water changes and therefore supplies some of these elements via supplements... that being said purchasing branded Ca, Mg, or Alk products can really be a rip off when you consider what's really in it and what you can get it for way cheaper sometimes even a better quality. But one can always doubt those products that advertise wonderful results without really mentioning what they are... after all there is no FDA to regulate aquarium products lol
