Any experience with reef roids or other products like system reef refresh from polylabs with SPS?

I only really want to know what it has done for color, I already have runaway growth, but would like to tweak my color a bit if possible,

I havent really paid much attention to my SPS lately:redface:

But I can say my 3 gorgonians(Including an un-common Blueberry Acalycigogia sp. from Sulawesi) are doing absolutely amazingly with my use of Reef-Roids!

I'd like to try them, "PUMP UP THE CORALS". Being a Vendor, why not hit Polylabs up for some samples. If it's not too pricey, I'll buy some.
BTW, you're light intensity may be the coloration culprit, the SPS frag I got from you looks totally different once growing under my lights, probably doesn't grow as fast for me though.

I think you have this Acro somewhere in the left half of your display.

I never used the free sample they mailed out a while back. LMK I could send it to you in the mail.

What is it, the roids, or the 4 pack reef refresh?

Has it gotten a lot bluer?

Roids, its a small sample but enough to see how it works.

No, Green, but still continues to change in intensity, maybe end up Blue?

It would be interesting. Sure.

I don't know how much good it would do because it is not designed for SPS, and my tank is pretty much all SPS.

As stated on their site it is more for filter feeding corals (Goniopora, Zoanthids, Mushrooms and Ricordia) rather than SPS. I use it regularly on both my tanks and while I don't notice much change in my SPS, all the corals in my 75G LPS and softie tank show great growth and coloration. I see response from all the corals in that tank when added, my donut coral almost turns inside out to grab as much as possible as it feeds. As stated I do add small amounts to my 180G for my Corky Finger Gorgonia, Cup corals and Moons I have in there, they all respond to it when added as well.
