C Balance

Has anyone used C Balanced? I'm currently using B Ionic & was looking for some feedback!

I've used both. Started with B-Ionic, tried C Balance now back to B-Ionic. I use less of the B-Ionic to maintain levels so it's cheaper in the long run.

I've also been using Two Little Fishes Combisan for about a year. Not sure if it makes much of a difference.

Combisan is an additive made by Two Little Fishies, the same company that makes C Balance. They call it a " bio-activator that contains all essential trace elements in special compounds easily absorbed by invertebrates, micro-organisms,marine fish."

I've been using it regularly for about a year. I'm not sure if it's doing any good but everything appears to be doing well.

I started C-Balance as my first 2 part additive. But while tinkering around with the Reef Chemistry Calculator it didn't take me long to figure B-Ionic seems to be more concentrated than C-Balance. It requires more of the C-Balance product to acheive the same desired results as with B-Ionic.
