how long to wait before starting other supplements?

[DMK]

i'm ordering my zeo basic 4 and carbon tomorrow. i was wondering how long 1 should wait at least, until u can start adding other zeo supplements( aminos, potassium, iron, etc, etc). i don't plan on adding any of these extras until i'm ready. thanks.

Dennis, if your system contains already corals dosing AAHC & CV from the beginning would make sense to help the corals to adopt to the new environment.

Later, if your tank is running stabile nutrient poor, described as phase 3 in the guide, you could use the other products to improve coloration. It does make no sense to use them from the beginning, because you will not observe any significant effect.

what does AAHC and CV stand for?

Dennis, CV = Pohls Coral Vitalizer and AAHC AminoAcidHighConcentrate.

Sorry for the shortcuts,

i already have corals, sps and a few lps. i'm ordering within next few hours... so in addition to the carbon and basic 4, i should get the CV and AAHC now? thanks.

Dennis CV and AAHC are not absolute necessary but it will support your corals with a additional food source while the environment changes so I would recommend to use both.

10-4. ordering everything tomorrow. thanks for the help. i'm sure i'll need alittle more once i start. i just did first water change w/ 50% old salt and 50% new. i swear some corals look better already. i can't wait to start. Dennis.
