Seachem Marine Trace

[67chevellemalibu2]

Just wondering if anyone adds this to their tank on a weekly basis?
Good, bad or useless?

It could never hurt of course but do a ICP test to see if your tank need more trace elements.

What is a ICP test ?

The trace elements may be useful. Some certainly will be if you are not dosing any. The only concern is if some are already on the high side, but I'm not sure how much the Seachem product will make such a scenario worse.

Several companies now offer this testing service.

Here's my experience with it:

Just realized this is Seachem's 'Marine Trace' which is a different product than their 'Reef Trace'. Marine Trace is for marine fish which I'm not quite sure why since we don't typically think of trace elements for fish. Good healthy variety of foods soaked in an occasional vit-chem should be good enough. I bought it to try a new coral trace element product. Guess I'll have to burn through this before heading back to the coral Reef Trace elements.

FYI for those that are stumbling on this product.
