Reefmonster Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 There is a LFS in Temecula, and the owner just said he pours in a bottle of 5-hour energy everyday into his 200G tank. The tank looks amazing...do you think he was BS'ing me? I've been out of the hobby for the past 8-years to finish college, so I don't really know what the new trends are. I know there are vitamin emulsions being dosed, but the energy shot? Is this for real??? Link to comment
davidncbrown Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Sounds like a bunch of BS to me too. What's in 5 hour energy anyway? A few amino acids, some B vitamins and some niacin so you get a niacin rush and it makes you feel awake? I'd much rather dose brightwells vitamins or kents if I did that... Sounds like hogwash to me.

maxwell Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 My tank prefers red bull. (joke) Link to comment
Reefmonster Posted June 13, 2010 Author Share Posted June 13, 2010 The store was Far West. My tank is just cycled so I don't think he wanted me to crash it...lol Now that I think of it maybe I misunderstood what he was saying. We were talking about what people put in their tanks and it came up...when I asked what he dosed he said the 5-hour energy shot and laughed...Oh well...I figured it was a joke, but ya never know...

vangvace Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 When I was station in Utah a fellow reefer poured a can of Fresca in his tank once a month. Paul B takes water from the Long Island sound to do water changes. It may not work for everyone but if it works for them... Link to comment
Freakin Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Nothing but NOS energy drink for my tank. I hit them with a doubleshot whenever I get an algae outbreak. Keeps the CUC working overtime Link to comment
aquariumreef Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Why bother with energy drinks when a good ol' fashion root beer would work? Link to comment
