    Im hearing what we thought in the 2000s, halides and kalk just work. We make things so hard on ourselves theses days. My sps tank in 2003 was so so easy. 15k DE halides, kalk, skimmer, live rock, cheato, water changes. No traces, no dinos, no issues, just fast easy growth.

    I appreciate someone like Johnny so much in this hobby, making it affordable for the average reefer. $1000 for a frag feels like a scam. Especially when the pictures representing the coral are edited.

    Avast Kalk are not good. The way it doses Kalk dilutes the solution as it’s dosed. Better is to mix a large container like 50 gallons and dose it that way. Better as it’s a consistent dose.
