Regrettably linking to The Bad Place, but I think this is a very useful article for those of us who are interested in (or have done) the Moonshiner Method of, "ICP test, dose trace elements to correct": https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/randys-elements-to-dose.1030557/

While I think the Moonshiner method has some merit to it (I, anecdotally, saw MUCH better colors in my old tank when I was religiously dosing Red Sea trace elements), I also think it's possible they oversell the importance of some of the elements (Rubidium being one I had my suspicions about, and interesting seeing that reflected here). Nice seeing the man himself weigh in.
