I have been using Coral snow, Amino Acids, Coral Vitalizer, Zoo Max and K80. I use the K80 once a week and rotate the others on a 4 day schedual. I also add Cal, and DKH and have found good results with that mix.

Sugar 1 tsp per day in 120 gallons.
Lugol's solution iodine about 5 drops every week or so whenever I remember, I could not find any logical reason for dosing this but someone I trust advised this so I started, makes no difference I can see to my tank or macros though. I will start dosing iron once I can get some iron supplement, for my chaetomorpha.

Do you notice quicker growth with this stuff? I have heard a couple good things about it. There are so many additives, it's hard to know which are worth the money, and which are a waste

Kalk through a reactor.
Unless your tests are out of wack, I wonder if there is any benefit to expensive supplements. IMO quality food additions like, live phytoplankton, frozen cyclopeze and ultraclam (I have no clams but the product is really minute) is more important to coral growth and colour.
