I’m wondering if anyone would be kind enough to help with a question . I picked up a bottle of Aminos for the Corals that I have in the tank and was wondering how many drops should be added to a 15 gallon. So the tanks has Zoas , Mushrooms , a few Torches , Gsp , some monties and a few other small frags. So basically it’s a Mixed tank I am using All for reef 2.5 ML 2 times a week and I use Red Sea AB + 3 times a week. 2 ML . I have 4 clowns three some snails and some hermit crabs as well

Levels are pretty good I think
Salinity 1.026
DKH 9
Phos 0.5
Cal 440
Mag 1500
PH 8
Ammonia 0
Nitrate 10
Nitrite 0

I’m really not sure I mean everything seems to be doing good the way it is
I didn't add anything to my reef for a long time. I would just add AB+ at a fraction of the directions.

Yea it’s a 15 gal that’s pretty stocked I have seen some videos and read some things I’ve been at the 2 ml for about a month now to be honest I have not seen any changes

Nothing added at the time of this picture. You won't see the change unless you take detailed pictures over time. We are not good at being able to see changes when it's this slow. Only pictures tell the story.

too much amino's will result in algae and cyano growing, whats not consumed by corals will be consumed by algae, be careful with that.

Thank you I have been doing some reading about that as well I know the tank is small I might cut back one day on the feeding it doesn’t seem like it’s a lot but I would rather be on the safe side
