I've said it before and I'll say it again, my SPS TOOK OFF when I added the Vortech. Everything was the same as it is now, parameters, lightings, filtration, feeding before I added the vortech and I didnt have nearly the successes that I do now. I keep my vortech in nutrient transport mode 24/7 too.

Same thing here! All of my corals are looking so much healthier and more colorful, especially my SPS. Although, after having improvement from my Vortech, I figured I would try to improve on parameters and overall health and maintenance of the tank (convert to an SPS-favoring system), and now my SPS are growing like weeds!

I try to keep everything as close as possible to alk 9, cal 450, Mag 1350, salinity .025, Temp 76. Been battling phosphates for a couple months now, they are under control but still higher then I'd like. I've said it before and I'll say it again, my SPS TOOK OFF when I added the Vortech. Everything was the same as it is now, parameters, lightings, filtration, feeding before I added the vortech and I didnt have nearly the successes that I do now. I keep my vortech in nutrient transport mode 24/7 too.
