I don't like reef recipes because I don't think they work, and because I think the development of a saltwater thumb is more important to the long term health a captive reef than a recipe.
I got tired of spending time and money on lowering PO4. When I stopped nothing much changed. Does that mean it will work for you? Dunno.
