We would like to share an excellent testimonial from one of the very early adopters of our Coral Essentials range. Sam Parker is well known to all serious marine reefers in Australia, not only for his involvement, commentary and awesome tank but also for his amazing photography. This is what Sam had to say about using Coral Essentials:
"I’ve been running Coral Essential supplements on my tank since the day they become available and couldn’t be happier with the results. I’ve been doing ICP testing on my tank for a couple of years now and have always been chasing a few minor trace elements that no other products on the market were able to keep up supply in my tank (bromine, zinc, nickel and cobalt). Coral Essentials by Sustainable Reefs have the perfect blend of products for my tank, namely these three: Bromide Solution, Trace Elements B and Coral Power Gro. Not only did these products meet the needs identified in my ICP testing, they were affordable, available and came with great support from the team at Coral Essentials on dosing amounts, recommended timing and other tips and tricks to get the most from my corals. The end result.... Corals that have been colouring better than I’ve ever seen in my tank before." |

We would like to share another testimonial with well known Aussie reefer, Chad Chatfield. Chad has been keeping marine aquariums for many years now and is very fussy about how he keeps his tank and what he uses to ensure his tank is always looking good. Enough from us let's see what Chad has to say about Coral Essentials.
" I've been using the range of Coral Essentials products for the last couple of months. I've just started into my 3rd lot of bottles. I dose Trace Elements A, B & C along with Boron and Bromide. I manually dose their excellent concentrates, Coral Power Gro and Coral Power Amino. My tank has improved dramatically after ditching a well known and expensive product that has seen my tank almost crash totally on several occasions. Coral essentials is also very reasonably priced, so much so, that I can now afford to splurge out and buy Sustainable Reefs frags that are second to none! If you want quality at an affordable price, and clearly visable results, I thoroughly recommend the products. The Coral Essentials products, along with their expert advise, has helped me get my tank looking just like the photos they post. " |

Chris Steinwedel is well known amongst Aussie reefers and he shares his thoughts on Coral Essentials.
"I started using 'Coral Essentials' at the beginning of July 2017. I had encountered major issues with my SPS corals, with a number of pieces randomly stn'ing. With hope of finding a solution I sent off a water sample to Triton. It resulted in my tank being low in potassium and boron. After lengthy conversations with the boys at 'Coral Essentials' I decided to give Coral Essentials a go. This was a big gamble for me, one that fortunately paid off very handsomely. I have always been a huge believer in dosing the three main elements, these being Alkalinity, Calcium and Magnesium all in conjunction with large water changes. This seemed to have kept all other elements balanced. Sadly, after 3 years my tank just wasn’t that happy anymore. I began dosing Coral Power Amino and Coral Power Gro and saw big improvements. About a month later I started dosing trace elements A,B,C and boron. The Red and blue colourings in my SPS began to pop again. I had a massive amount of polyp extension in my SPS due to dosing, this was something I have never had in my tank before. My rtn'ing stopped and my corals started bursting with new growth again. I am very satisfied with the product range and quality that Coral Essentials provide and highly recommend it to others. It will be a product I continue to use in the foreseeable future to keep my tank looking it's absolute best." |

We have Nick Salta to share his thoughts on using Coral Essentials. Nick is well known to Australian and international marine reefers and is always actively participating in forums on anything marine. We have to admit Nick was the first person outside of our own internal testing to try out and use Coral Essentials products. Plenty of feedback and further experimentation followed in those first few months. Nick we will be eternally grateful to you for all your help and offering up your amazing tank as our Test Bed, thank you.
"The guys at Sustainable Reefs approached me 18 months or so ago now and asked if I would be interested in testing some of the prototype marine supps they had been developing. I had met Christian and Rick personally a few times, been up to see the facility and take dive trips. At first I was a little sceptical, what if something goes wrong.... Ahh well I could always hit them up to replace all the SPS in my tank!! I tried many iterations of their Trace Elements, Vitamins and Amino products over the ensuing months. Many different dosing ratios were tried until we had it absolutely spot on. Never did I lose any coral, we made them pale out a little if we went too hard at times, and some fluctuations in element ratios, but overall, it just made my tank look better than it ever had. The team at Coral Essentials always had time to try out things for me, take feedback, give me advice and generally support me in my endeavour to make my tank the best it could be. In the end we had everything perfect! I tell every one they must give it a go, that shit really works, no bull" |

Alex Xue is an avid reefer and and advocate of just what Coral Essentials can do for your marine tank. This is what he had to say.
" I have been using Coral Essentials products since the 27th of August 2017, almost 3 months now. I was speaking to Chris Steinwedel and he advised that it will bring amazing results to your tank if you use it. Since my tank has been established for over half a year now the system has become more and more stable, I thought it's about time I started chasing those vivid, amazing coral colours that you see from the best marine aquarium owners. So I went out and purchased Coral Essentials Trace Elements A, B and C, as well as Coral Power Amino and Coral Power Gro vitamins from my LFS. I started dosing as per the instructions immediately. After 2-3 weeks I found my blue acro turning a very bright colour and all others with much better color too. I'm already starting my 2nd set and am extremely happy with the results. I'm gonna recommend their products to all my friends, all reefers must give it try! Great work Coral Essential's guys. " |
