Dosing trace elements for corals

Daily dosing might be better for SPS. They're more sensitive to fluctuations. I'd also check your potassium levels—low K can stunt growth.

Trace elements can be tricky. I've had the best results with Red Sea's Reef Foundation program. It's important to test for magnesium, calcium, and alkalinity first. What's your current alk level? Also, how often are you dosing?

My alk is stable at 8.5 dKH, calcium at 420, and mag at 1350. I dose every other day, but maybe I need to adjust the frequency. Thanks for the Red Sea tip—I'll look into it.

Those numbers sound solid. Maybe try daily dosing in smaller amounts. And yeah, potassium is often overlooked. A good test kit is worth the investment.

Alright, y'all convinced me. Gonna grab a test kit and start slow. Wish me luck!
