You are carbon dosing already, I don't see a reason that you would need to add anything else as far as bacteria or food for the bacteria.

Biofuel is actually carbon dosing...not bacterial additives. Aren't you supposed to dose MicroBater7 with ReefFuel?

I've never had a problem mixing bacterial additives but I usually go really slow with it and start lower than reccomended dosage. What other additive did you have in mind?

IMO you have a greater chance of a bacteria bloom. Just stick with mb7 and biofuel since the mb7 is a variety of bacteria. I have used BioDigest and mb7 but never used them thogether. Not really an need to.
