Most of the acros I added were in November. I wish I added more acros from the start.

I will be switching from ESV to Triton "Others" next month as I want to incorporate an additive with elevated trace elements. I had success with Triton additives on my Cade tank.

Parameters now:

  • Nitrate 11.2 - increased NH4 dosing so I can reach ~20.
  • Phos 0.377 - tank seems to stay around this range, so I will maintain it.
  • ALK 7.8 - my target is 7.5
  • PAR seems to be 250-300 at the middle height of the tank. I am slowly increasing my LED's power to see if I can hit 350-400. Running the lights at 73% at the moment.

Is this Triton's monthly subscription which comes with a monthly trace additive based on your ICP?

No, it is basically the Triton core additives for tanks without a refugium. It still contains the major, minor, and trace elements — just less trace elements because the lack of a refugium.

I got the Triton Flex additives so I can choose to use it as a 2-part rather than a 3 or 4-part.
 
From what I’ve read, Triton supplements trace elements rather than acting like a part C which ESV does. However, you still might have to dose individual traces depending on what coral you have and how big they are. I think I’ll be happy regardless since traces are still being dosed.
