Description
Tropic Marin CARBOCALCIUM, the total calcium and carbonate hardness needs of a typical reef aquarium can be covered with a single solution, without any additional unwanted compounds or excess carbon dioxide being created. Minerals are consumed through the growth of organisms and other processes in the aquarium and must therefore be supplemented regularly. These include mainly calcium and carbonate hardness elements for the growth of the calcareous skeletons of stony corals, red coralline algae and other reef organisms. The special co-ordinated components in CARBOCALCIUM create an ideal environment with only a single solution. Tropic Marin CARBOCALCIUM avoids all the side effects of other methods of calcium hardness: the pH remains stable; there is no excess CO2 and there is no risk of unwanted phosphates being introduced through the dissolution of coral rubble. In addition, there is neither a creeping increase in salinity, nor increased oxygen consumption through carbon compounds.
Instructions:
Starting with a daily dose of 5 ml of Carbo-Calcium liquid solution per 100 litres (26 gallons) of total system volume. Increase the daily dose by monitoring the alkalinity. Increase the dose by 2.5 ml per 100 litres until a constant alkalinity of 7-9 dKH is achieved.
Maximum daily dose – 25 ml of Tropic Marin Carbo-Calcium per 100 litres.
Tropic Marin Carbo-Calcium Contains: (per 1000 mL)
- 40,000 Calcium
- 5,600 dKH
