we got in our Tropic Marin shipment and immediately started testing it, our first dosings where with a mixtures of Tropic marin coral snow mixed with TM Pro coral phyton and TM Pro coral zooton, the results speak for themselves!!! Mix a spoon of reef snow in 100ml of RO water and leave for two hours stirring now and again this makes a gel, then add the two other products and stir, wait for 30 minutes and serve!
You can make up a batch of coral snow and leave at room temperature for a week, but do not add the other two products these must be added fresh

Aren't the corals going to get angry for having to wait for so long after placing the order? :lol:
Looks promising though :) One quick Q. Is it like the "coral snow" of zeo or "reef snow" from some other products. This snow thing is confusing and winter is coming!

Its Tropic marins version, to be honest they have been doing this longer than most.

A Natural Source of Nutrients for Corals and Other Filter Feeding Animals
Recently marine scientists have become increasingly aware of reef snow’s central function as a vital source of nutrients on natural coral reefs. Dissolving Tropic Marin® PRO-CORAL REEF SNOW in RO/DI water forms a thick solution that can be combined with nutrient supplements and foods such as Tropic Marin® LIPOVIT and PRO-CORAL ZOOTON and PHYTON to mimic this natural nutrient source.
When added to the reef aquarium, PRO-CORAL REEF SNOW together with the food and supplements form highly nutritious flakes similar to those of natural reef snow. By varying the concentration of the PRO-CORAL REEF SNOW solutions, the size of the flakes can be adjusted to the specific filter feeding animals maintained in the aquarium. The portion of PRO-CORAL REEF SNOW and the nutrients it contains which falls to the aquarium floor is only slowly decomposed by bacteria, thus further providing additional enriching nutrients.

In this way PRO-CORAL REEF SNOW also helps in reef aquaria as a food source for a wide variety of bottom dwellers. It is also a delicacy for worms, crustaceans, sea cucumbers, sea urchins, right up to gudgeons and other detritus feeding fish. The stirred up particles can be utilized again by the filter feeding animals as a valuable food source.
Tip: Many fish happily devour larger flakes of PRO-CORAL REEF SNOW. As a prebiotic food, it promotes the natural intestinal flora and thus also helps prevent the spread of unwanted bacteria.

Yah. Possibly that's their proprietary name of the common "reef snow" from many other brands. People sometimes get confused with coral snow (which is not a food) and reef snow (which is a food). :razz: Naming games :lol:

Probably best to look at the description of what it does rather than compare names to other products. :lol:
if you read the label it is both a food and a binder hence the dual name. A combo of two classics.
The detail is in the description, and clearly my corals love it instantly ;)
This is also one of their top selling products and we have sold over half of our current shipment to dealers, so I think we have got something for everyone to try and report back on.
