The directions with AcroPower state it can be used once a week or as often as daily, I have been using it once a week and not seeing a big difference. For those that use it how often do you add it?
Thanks,

I use the recommended amount for daily, but I do it every other day. Haha.....
Does seem to bring out colors and PE. I ran out and wasn't going to get it again and my acro's were fine but got a little drab.

Nobody got the joke huh ?
i got it. Seriously is it not just amino acids like it says on the label. I feel my corals grow faster with it. I run it on dosing pump. I do have elevated Sn...
yeah that stuff is great , I watch the polyps come out as soon as the water carries it by . its amazing
and I know there is no tin , that was a stab at another thread just joking around
It is known that coral can uptake various amino acids, nitrate and ammonia directly.

Witch is also a feeding response and I've found more of my colonies do this when they are being supplemented with acropower.
When I looked at this thread I also noticed that a few of the others that were getting this response from their Sps were also using acropower.

We have been dosing it at the rate of 2ml every 3 hours into a 500 gallon mixed reef system for just over 3 months now, and have noticed much better coloration and polyp extension on both the SPS and LPS in this system...
I also add it to our food mix at the shop so it get fed out a few times a week at the shop, and I will let our Corals speak for themselves as to their liking....

Acropower is not a snake oil. But it is expensive.
