Following. I have been using it for a while now but I don't dose as much as you guys 3 drops at night after lights out my sticks are doing I would say ok but I can't say it's AA cause color and PE was always there.

I was dosing 5ml a day then I saw cyano starting . I bumped it down to 3ml a day in my 100G total (75G display + 25G sump) Water Volume SPS Dominated tank for the past month. Since I have bumped it down to 3ml a day everything is growing great, definitely see the colors coming back and the PE is better than ever.

I dose 8ml a day in 360G total. Haven't seen any cyano and polyp extension has improved

Isnt it the same equivalent of just feeding your fishes more or getting more fish?

Pretty close... Most likely the people that seeing seeing quick and noticable improvements have tanks that are lacking nitrogen and would most likely see the same or similar improvements with any number of cheaper alternatives. But, we're reef aquarists, we like to dump pretty bottle of expensive stuff in our tanks whenever we feel it might make things more colorful

acropower is a good aditif for acro/sps but if you dont have good maximal skimmer they can make green algae

My acros are doing okay, but I'd like them to do better.

I hear a lot of different experiences with it. I got cyano right away dosing at half the recommendation. I think when that happens there is already an existing issue that the acropower helps push over the edge. Some people never get cyan. I’ve stopped using it altogether, feed a lot more and have the same polyp extension and growth/color. It is interesting stuff but have to keep an eye on your tank and its response to it.
