Default Coral snow

Wow do I ever love this product

I dosed it before lights on at 1.5ml to my 42g of water. Water was amazingly clear my skimmer was pulling more gunk.

Like to see how acros respond with consistent dosing

it's used as a supplement to clarify water, however you use it for corals? How do the two work together, and what are the benefits for the corals? Growth? Color?

Mixing it with liquid foods gives the food something to bind to. Since the snow is a clay the food is now able to be caught buy the polyps

That's what "they" say. I'm not sure I buy into this selling feature since overuse of Coral Snow can bleach corals. I just like the clarifying aspect of the additive.
