SR ADDITIVE REVIEWS
We break down reef chemistry products based on what they actually deliver — clarity over marketing claims, performance over popularity. By standardizing cost based on real additive concentration and evaluating results. Our mission is the right reef additive the first time instead of guessing your way through bottles.
Serious Reefs unfiltwered reviews have no sponsors, no advertisers, and no manufacturer funding. We do not accept free products, paid placements, for reviews. Every additive we test is purchased by Serious Reefs, which ensures every review remains fully unfiltered, data-driven, and focused on what matters: building healthier, more successful reef tank
*NEW* Nyos Ion-B | SR Unfiltered Review
We reviewed the Nyos Ion-B additive line and came away impressed. It is a liquid, multi-part two-part system that includes alkalinity, calcium/magnesium, and three separate ion element blends. It can help elevate pH, addresses magnesium and potassium, and gives you adjustable trace element dosing rather than a single one-size-fits-all reef trace bottle. Priced against our SR concentration standard it works out to about $24.14, putting it in the middle of the pack — but remember that the three 250ml bottles are sized to last multiple refills, which increases value over time. If Nyos releases a dry version as planned, we expect the cost to drop because shipping dry chemicals removes the weight and cost of shipping liters of water-based solution..
