I'm sorry, where is are my reefkeeping manners?

Stats on my tank have been very good after I started using this stuff:
Nitrates: used to average around 2-3, now closer to 0.5
Phosphates: essentially close to zero now (0.12, average), used to be 1.1
ORP: used to sit aroud 375, now around 398

Overall, I started using this stuff because i was getting brown algae on my sand, and cyano. This stuff has the benefit of absorbing organic carbon as well, which is an added plus if you're running bio pellets. The elimination of algae was definitely noticeable. Coral vitality seemed alot better, perhaps because of the increase in ORP. this stuff has the benefit of lasting months too, not just weeks.
