Description
The Fundamentals Pack combines those products essential for any reef (Reef Complete�, Reef Carbonate�, and Reef Plus�).
Reef Complete� is a concentrated (160,000 mg/L) optimized
blend of ionic calcium designed to restore and maintain calcium to
levels found in natural seawater without affecting pH. Calcium and
carbonates are essential to all coral growth. If either becomes
deficient, coral growth will cease, followed by a rapid decline in coral
health. To prevent this you must provide calcium (Reef Complete�) and
carbonates (Reef Builder� or Reef Carbonate�). Reef Complete� also
includes magnesium and strontium in amounts proportionate to typical
utilization ratios (100:5:0.1, Ca:Mg:Sr). This allows one to maintain
these two important elements while maintaining calcium.
Reef Carbonate� is a concentrated (4,000 meq/L) optimized
blend of carbonate and bicarbonate salts designed to restore and
maintain alkalinity in the reef aquarium. Calcium and carbonates are
essential to all coral growth. If either becomes deficient, coral growth
will cease, followed by a rapid decline in coral health. To prevent
this you must provide carbonates (Reef Carbonate�) and calcium (Reef
Advantage Calcium� or Reef Complete�). Used as directed, Reef Carbonate�
will not deplete calcium, magnesium, or strontium which usually tend to
precipitate with increasing alkalinity. Reef alkalinity should be
maintained at 3�5 meq/L (8�14 dKH). Alkalinity should not be allowed to
fall below 2 meq/L.
Reef Plus� s a full spectrum supplement of trace components
such as iodide, bromide, molybdenum, iron, manganese, cobalt,
potassium, inositol, choline; important vitamins such as C and B12; and beneficial amino acids, such as cysteine, proline, glycine, alanine, and lysine.
