I rely on good flow and great skimming (Tunze).
The flow keeps left over food up and then it can be removed by the skimmer. The skimmer pulls any and all left over, immediately out of the tank
these products have never given me increase inphosphates or nitrates .
Wow so you are feeding your tank this stuff 6x's aweek! do you turn off your return pump when feeding? I remeber seeing you had a softie/lpd tank correct. I bet these guys love this stuff. Do you see any difference in feeding response or polyp extension between the two foods?

I have tried the amino acids now for about 6 weeks. Had no difference in anything other than a thinning wallet. So AA are done for me!
