Bro I've been using all for reef powder for over a year now which is around 3 tubs and absolutely every time it's pure white and mixes crystal clear, that stuff don't look too good man

My biggest word of advice is that this supplement works slow and stable. Initially, I thought it would be the same as 2 part. Where you can see the change in alkalinity pretty quick from day today and within a week time know your exact consumption. However, within four days I saw zero change and double dosage slowly in craft until one day it seems to raise a whole point within a couple of hours when I tested again thinking something was up. In retrospect, be prepared to not get your consumption results right away do it slow.

Great video. Ive been using A4R for over a year now. Mine does always mix nice and clear. It's never been yellow.

Might be the warm water he puts in the microwave could be a chemical reaction.

How could I apply to adding this with my ATO?

@@arthurmccue3647 you need a doser. ATO is not a good idea. Buy a cheap 40$ one from Amazon

Any issues with PH or alkalinity swings? thinking about trying it on my 32 gallon fiji cube

Great video! Do yu really have to buy all that gear? Someone on Amazon said 6 spoons for 1000 ml bottle and 3 for 500 ml bottle. Not sure if she is right. She says she pits clear aquarium rock in the bottle to help stir it! Also couldnt you convert it online to grams?

I’m still watching but I caught that you said 900 mls is a liter and it’s 1,000 mls per liter. Just to clarify. 100mls will make a big difference.

What alkalinity and calcium numbers do you target with your All-for-Reef dosing?

@sidsreef6891 Жыл бұрын

i go off of TM parameters. Salinity:35PPT(1.026) PH:8.0-8.4 Calcium:400-440 MAG:1300-1380 ALK:6-12. my Alk level is a lil higher.

You don’t even have to put the magnetic stick in the beaker. you can still get it from the outside so your stick doesn’t get wet.

so after about 20 mins or so the solution turned clear after settling down from the mixer. theres another guy on youtube that showed his mixing process. his solution also looked yellow. or dirty water color.

Use this and you'll never need to do waterchange. Saves more money

@@adnailsupplyso you use all for reef to avoid water changes, maybe I should start using it then. My tank is only 4 months old, I don’t think I’m ready for dosing with just softies in the tank

Idk if you know what your talking bout im doing over 20 percent water change every week and checked my water a day after water change and my alk was at 7.0 too low and im religious about my water changes
