Coral Food

[heath]

awhile ago I was told about an awesome coral food and it was called something snow, its from a german company. Does anyone know the actual name, where to get it and has anyone ever used it...

Coral snow

Kz coral snow can technically feed your corals, but that's not what it's used for.

It is a milky substance that is dosed into aquarium by some. The main property that people utilize the additive for is to clean dietrius, and other things floating in water column.

It acts as a binding agent which makes particles larger where mechanical filtration like filter socks or skimmer can remove from system.

In doing so when it binds all the goodies floating in water column, corals can then eat this binded substance.

However it is not a coral food IMO.

Reef Chili/reef roids are coral food.

I used snow when I was first starting. It worked wonders. I am all about the Chili now though

Proline Aquatics shut down I believe, so obtaining KZ products will become much more difficult shortly.

ive had best results using 1/3 recommended dose of reef roids, 1/2 recommended dose of aqua vitro fuel and a 1/4 recommended dose of polyp labs polyp booster all mixed together. i feed this twice a week. it will give off a broad range of particle sizes to suit the needs of all your corals and other filter feeders. Plus the amino acids and trace elements help keep colours bright damnit i just gave away my recipe

Like unibob said. No personal experience with it but from what I've read it appears to be a floculent and works something like this.

Anyone know where I can get cyclopez? It's the only item I didn't add to my reef recipe.

you will have to share your receipt with us..

I would think Big Al's or the nearest aquarium store to you should have cyclopez. I bought frozen cyclops from Living Aquarium
that I used in my home made fish food...

I sell omega one cyclops. It is a different strain of cyclopeeze.
