As I read various threads i've begun to notice that a lot of people are going beyond just the typical Ca, Alk, and Mg supplements in their reef tanks and using other products such as Amino Acids, Potassium etc etc. I have to admit, I don't know anything about the subject but I am interested in the hows and whys to what people use in their tanks. My main purpose for using an additive would be to enhance color. Growth would be a worthy task as well, but if I had to pick between the two color would win the battle.

Does anyone care to share their routine and maybe a little insight on how and why you do what you do. Specific product names would also be appreciated because I hope to build some sort of a shopping list for my next order from this thread.
