Amino Acids: Are They Worth It? | Reef2Reef On top of this, zooxanthellae can also absorb amino acids as a source of nitrogen, which can be used to create biomolecules which get transferred to the coral and used for growth
Organo-MS - results and evaluations | Page 5 | Reef2Reef Half-life of amino acids in the reef aquarium Hi Reef2Reefers, I’d like to share some experimental data that, to the best of my knowledge, hasn’t been published (or even done) before We dosed amino acids into a standard mixed reef system (skimmer + GFO, high flow, LED lighting) and collected water samples at several time points: before
DIY Amino Acid Dosing | Reef2Reef Eight amino acids normally considered essential for animals were made by the five corals tested, although some of them were made only in small quantities These eight amino acids are valine, isoleucine, leucine, tyrosine, phenylalanine histidine, methionine and lysine
Dosing amino acids | Reef2Reef My 29g has been lacking in nutrients and am interesting in dosing aminos acids Im between the brightwell and the red sea ab reef energy My nitrates have been low 1ppm nitrate 02ppm as of last reading Calc has been 440 and alk 10 3 im currently have only lps was wondering if anyone else has
Amino acids? | Reef2Reef Amino acids aren't the most ideal nitrogen source for this purpose They come with some carbon atoms and maybe other things attached which seem to favor the presence of cyanobacteria at least as much as they favor coral health
Korallen-Zucht Amino Acid Concentrate LPS - THOUGHTS?? Amino Acid Concentrate LPS Amino acid blend designed specifically for Large Polyp Stony (LPS) corals Increases coral growth Coral tissue will expand immediately after dosing Injured corals will regenerate faster Positive impact on LPS coral growth A high quality amino acid based food source for LPS corals: including
The Complete Guide to Raising Nutrients | Reef2Reef Amino acids can worsen dinoflagellates issues Adding extra fish If your tank has the extra room, increasing the fish load can be a satisfying way to increase nutrients while simultaneously adding more activity and inhabitants If you don’t have many fish, adding excess food without consumption will increase the carbon and organic waste input
Trace elemnts vs amino acids lets talk about that | Reef2Reef Amino acids are especially useful if you are maintaining a very low nutrient aquarium as they can supply N to organisms that take them up I am not sure how beneficial they are to corals in higher N environments, but they may help bacteria and zooxanthellae in corals grow faster It was shown years ago that some amino acids are usefully gotten from the environment for certain hard corals
