I use the balling salts (Ca, Alk and Mg) plus the trace metal additives. They work great for me, so I won't be changing to anything else any time soon.

I tried sample packets of the food, and my critters weren't too crazy for it.

have you notice a difference in your tank by using this. corals, fish look better color or grow better.

Yes, my corals look better and grow better, but there is a rather large caveat - previous to the FM salts, I was dosing supplements (Ca - seachem, Alk - Brightwell's) by hand. I started dosing the FM with a Profilux (so automatic doser) which is a lot more consistent (as I am not).

So I can't chalk it all up to FM, but I'm sure using their product doesn't hurt
