It's pretty, but without a before pic, it's not really much more than a nice pic of a nice coral, I can see how bright the oranges are for sure though.

Would really need to be pics taken before and after under same lighting to show what the difference is.

Not a big deal, just if somene did have a good example of dosing vc's effects, it would be interesting.

Lots of people advocating dosing it, so I'm sure there's some examples out there, I'll use my google..

You should do a six month test with your tank and share with us... And don't forget to take pics... We would be very interested to see if it will work for your corals in your tank... Couldn't hurt..... If anything would improve your corals and it's cheap. A splash of orange in all that brown would give it a nice contrast too!

Well I had a bottle kicking around so I'm going to start dosing the fish & coral foods and see if it does anything.

here is a before pic I found different lighting, but if you ain't starring at Brown corals for the last 10 yrs, then you will have some sense of color judgement towards the difference in lighting.

so please show me some of the different shades of brown you got!
before questioning everybody else

I just do recommended dosing on the container, but I know some people, cough cough, who double up. What's the worst that can happen, some brown coral maybe?

Eh? Brown is the new in colour... Didn't you know? Wish I know how to get some of those... I'll google Brown Raft and see if there are any....

I am currently dosing 20 ml, twice per week... If that means anything...
