Coral Essentials Primary Care Kit 10000ml x 3

Coral Essentials Calcium + Trace

Our Coral Essentials, Calcium + Trace is a concentrated source of liquid calcium, 100,000 ppm (mg/L) and our own unique blend of trace elements. We have added our Coral Power Trace A and B elements into this mix using our proven Coral Essentials Method dosing regiment. When using Calcium + Trace there is no need to add trace elements as well.

You have two options for dosing:
You can follow our simple recipe detailed below for daily dosing without testing the Calcium usage. Or secondly, for optimum results the calcium levels in marine tanks need to be checked regularly to determine the take up in your system. Simply calculate dosing requirements to suit the depletion rate using our easy to use dosing instructions below. After you have determined this, a regular check of the calcium levels should be made. Your tank will change over time as coral grows, new pieces are added as well as invertebrates that also take up calcium. We have found ideal calcium levels to be at about 430-470ppm for most aquariums. Levels of 470+ ppm are desirable if you want to maintain high levels of growth in a SPS and hard coral dominant system.

Simplified dosage instructions:
Soft Coral / LPS System - 3ml per 100L of tank volume per day.
Mixed Reef System - 6ml per 100L of tank volume per day.
SPS Dominant System - 12ml per 100L of tank volume per day.

Dosing by Usage:
1ml will raise the Calcium level by 1ppm for each 100ml of aquarium volume.

Coral Essentials Carbonate + Trace

Our Coral Essentials, Carbonate + Trace is a concentrated source of liquid carbonate, 180,000 ppm (mg/L) or 10,000dKH and our own unique blend of trace elements. We have added our Coral Power Trace C elements as well as Boron and Bromide into this mix using our proven Coral Essentials Method dosing regiment. When using Carbonate + Trace there is no need to add additional trace elements.

You have two options for dosing:
You can follow our simple recipe and add the following amounts each day as detailed below. Or secondly, for optimum results the alkalinity (KH) levels in marine tanks need to be checked regularly to determine the take up in your system. Simply calculate dosing requirements to suit the depletion rate using our easy to use dosing calculator below. After you have determined this, a regular check of the alkalinity levels should be made. Your tank will change over time as coral grows, new pieces are added as well as invertebrates that also take up carbonate. We have found ideal KH levels to be at about 8-9 dKH for most aquariums. Levels of 8.5 – 9.0 dKH are desirable if you want to maintain high levels of growth in a SPS and hard coral dominant system.

Simplified dosage instructions:
Soft Coral / LPS System - 3ml per 100L of tank volume per day.
Mixed Reef System - 6ml per 100L of tank volume per day.
SPS Dominant System - 12ml per 100L of tank volume per day.

Dosing by Usage:
1ml will raise the Carbonate (Alkalinity) level by 0.1dKH (1.8ppm) for each 100L of aquarium volume.

Coral Essentials Magnesium + Trace

Our Coral Essentials, Magnesium + Trace is a concentrated source of liquid magnesium, 12,500 ppm (mg/L) and our own unique blend of Potassium. We have added our Coral Power Potassium into this mix using our proven Coral Essentials Method dosing regiment.

You have two options for dosing: You can follow our simple recipe and add the amounts detailed below for each day. Or secondly, for optimum results the magnesium levels in marine tanks need to be checked regularly to determine the take up in your system. Simply calculate dosing requirements to suit the depletion rate using our easy to use dosing calculator below. After you have determined this, a regular check of the magnesium levels should be made. Your tank will change over time as coral grows, new pieces are added. We have found ideal magnesium levels to be at about natural sea water levels for most aquariums. Levels of 1300-1350ppm are desirable if you want to maintain high levels of growth in a SPS and hard coral dominant system

Simplified dosage instructions:
Soft Coral / LPS System - 3ml per 100L of tank volume per day.
Mixed Reef System - 6ml per 100L of tank volume per day.
SPS Dominant System - 12ml per 100L of tank volume per day.

Dosing by Usage:
1ml will raise the Magnesium level by 0.125ppm for each 100L of aquarium volume.
