[Falcon30]

I’m new here and I hope I’m doin this correctly but I can’t seem to find post about people using mb7 and mb clean together… my tank is fairly new and I’ve been out of it for several years and I’ve never used them until now. Went through cycle without issues and did have a diatom bloom and some green hair algae and then I started my clean and a week later I started mb7 and all I mean ALL algae melted away now I’m finding dead snails and hermits so I upped my feeding but still no algae in 3 days

10 real reef pinkish rock
10 carrib sea purple rock

cycled with shrimp and fritz

reefer 350

So everything is the way its supposed to be? Probably keep feeding more?

Running both is fine but probably not needed. They need to be dosed just as you are doing on different days. I'd back off on how much you're dosing as you can get into a bad case of nothing left for the corals. Bacteria is always first in line.

I'd also note this is not something that is going to show up on test kits. There is leftover Po4 and No3 but what corals need are the actual organics before breakdown.
