Fully synthetic marine salt created for coral cultures, especially SPS. Its formula is designed to create the best conditions for marine animals. The micronutrients and macronutrients contained in the formula fully fulfill the demand of corals for proper growth and pigmentation. Probiotic bacteria contained in the salt reduce the content of nitrates and phosphates, and prevents the growth of pathogenic bacteria in the marine aquarium.
Probiotic Reef Salt Contains vitamins and amino acids.
After dissolving the salt, freshly prepared marine water can be used immediately. When setting up new aquariums it is recommended that the first animals are placed no sooner than 10-14 days after filling the aquarium.
Instructions for use:
Dissolve the salt in previously prepared demineralized water. Water temperature should be about 24`C (75`F). For salinity 33 ppt dissolve 3.95 of salt in 100 liters (27 US gal.) of water. Stir the solution vigorously for about 15 minutes. When the salt is fully dissolved and the solution clear, the marine water is ready to use. Aquaforest recommend to keep salinity between 33 to 35 ppt.
