Actually you can convert IU to mg or vice versa. For example: Somatropin- One 6mg Vial 0.2mg or 0.6 IU per day OR Two 6mg vials 0.4mg or 1.2 IU per day . Conversion differs from drug ID. |

May I ask a question of both ethical and somewhat technical nature?
Is all this a healthy reefkeeping? Is it right to introduce such methods in the hobby? Do corals really thrive or are we setting a bio-clock-bomb in our setups? (I am not criticising, in the contrary, I am extremely interested in knowing your opinions! I am nearly determined to do the same, guys, I am not any strict puritanist...!) Thank you! |

I love the polyp extension. Is that a result of the hgh or flow?

As for the HGH... no scientific study has shown if it even works, but feeding a high protein diet and adding AA's 4 hours prior to the dosage of the cubes may lead to greater polyp extension. The Blue Coral method reminds me of the ZEOvit method. You have those who will believe because they have seen it from experience and you have those who just dont feel it will work. I noticed that the Italians had long disucssions over this with closed threads. The ZEOvit method also had this effect even in Germany. |

In this tread are shown tanks that uses Zeovit system (Brulz one), tanks that uses XAqua system (Alexalbe one, the Xaqua system is a zeo like system), thanks with the Blu Coral method and tanks with other simple method. I think this can make misunderstandings.
Bye

So what is "the simple method"...
Intense lighting, strong flow and overfeeding (the corals, fish or both)? |

Still wanting to know what most over there are using to bring their MG levels up. I know there are many methods; just curious about what they are doing in Italy.
I'd also like to know if there are tanks where people are doing the high feed protien mix WITHOUT the HGH and what is their growth rates. Thanks, Todd |

The method without the HGH reminds of the Eric Borneman coral food. |

intense lighting, strong flow, food always available for corals as Ca. I don't' suggest the overfeeding in young tanks, it' necessary to have a really mature tank to do it. Bye

Ok I would like to thank everyone that has posted information and pictures to this tread. I would like to participate with HGH were do I obtain it and how much of it do I add? I know that there is no such thing as a Magic Bullet but here in America everything is shunned upon if it is not a marketing issue. Lets try and keep our minds open to this new technology and see if it will work first before some of us bash it or say things like is this ethical to add HGH to our tanks. If anyone would like to share information with me private please do so. I have always kept an open mind towards others in different parts of the world to see what they do and try and apply this to my own setup. I would really like to know more about these tanks but I can’t read Italian from some of the links. The tanks pictured above are of incredible magnitude and should be in my opinion look at further for future reference as to how to keep reef aquaria. Please do not take anything I say as bashing but threads like this always get closed because people start hating on each other and I for one would like to learn more about this………………keep the info rolling.
P.S. invincible569 If there is some secret society that I can join please feel free to send me a pm or email at miezza@msn.com P.S.S. sorry for the rant

LOL, all this HGH stuff makes me laugh...
HGH - Human Growth Hormone's are steroids which are illegal in the US and you will go to jail if you get caught with it. |

If you want to know more about the HGH blu coral method.. here's some more info (credit goes to Fabio-Sir who has used this system and is also at 1600mg):
HGH is not absorbed by the coral, but it affects its cellularly (membrane level) creating special proteins. Theoriticaly that is. In order to prevent high PO4/Nitrates, you can use a ice cube tray to make this solution and slice them up even more dosing 2-3 times a week. It all depends on the coral load. |

HGH is just a generic term, there are hundred of different "hgh" drugs. Whatever they are using seems to be working. Any Idea what its called or who makes it.

At least one of the tanks had A LOT of fish. It was several pages back or on one of the links. They were larger fish, too. I think they were tangs. I'll have to go back and look, but I know I saw one that had unbelieveable growth and color that contained quite a few and fairly large ones at that.

This is the best thread I have seen to date, I can only dream of having such an awsome tank as the ones I have just seen and thank Invincible for sharing them with us. Cheers
