Default Recommend me some supplements

Hi folks,

Looking to order some supplements for my reef tank, and I am a bit overwhelmed. So many brands and types, and with a big price range. I don't understand what the difference is between the 10$ stuff and the 50$ stuff.

Any help would be appreciated.. Keeping some softies and LPS.

Have you tested to see what your tank is deficient in?
