Greg - in your opinion do you feel dosing amino acids improves the colour of SPS? You seem to be a little familar with the topic. All other variables being ideal and stable of course.
I am reluctant to dose anything, perhaps because as I have never added a supplement to my current tank and have generally enjoyed success and good colour. Interested in your thoughts however. Thanks

If you are going to use powdered amino acids it might be better first to mix them into some fresh water. Certain amino acids will not go into solution well at the high pH of tank water. When added to fresh, un-buffered water they will decrease the pH and may go into solution better. Some amino acids are easier to solubulize under acidic conditions, some under basic.
