Description
Vibrant Sea is a highly concentrated blend of salts
formulated for marine and reef aquariums that contains all essential
major, minor, and trace components found in natural seawaters, plus the
added advantage of enhanced potassium levels. Its formulation is ideal
for the reef environment and will provide accurate seawater
concentrations of magnesium, calcium, and strontium with proper
alkalinity and pH for closed reef aquarium systems.
Vibrant Sea is an anhydrous salt, which allows for
unparalleled uniformity from batch to batch as well as the ability to
produce more saltwater from less salt. In addition, it is highly soluble
and can mixed and used in the same day.
At a specific gravity of 1.026, Vibrant Sea will yield the following:
pH: 8.4-8.5 Alkalinity: 3-4 meq Calcium: 425-445 mg/L Magnesium: 1,250-1,350 mg/L Potassium: 500-550 mg/L Strontium: 8-10 mg/L
Directions
- Mix Vibrant Sea with dechlorinated tap or purified
water. We recommend the use of a commercial dechlorinator like Prime to
neutralize any tap water chlorine and/or chloramines. If source water
quality is extremely poor we recommend purification with a Seachem
Pinnacle RO/DI system.
NOTE: To prepare small quantities, add 27 g
of Vibrant Sea per 1 liter of water for a specific gravity of 1.020.
Add 31 g per 1 liter for 1.023. For larger quantities, use 1/2 cup per 6
L (1.58 US gallons) for a specific gravity of 1.020 or 1/2 cup per 5.25
L (1.38 US gallons) for 1.023. - Stir well until thoroughly dissolved. Vibrant Sea is
then ready for immediate use. Excessive mixing may result in cloudiness.
Cloudiness will dissipate when the Vibrant Sea solution is added to
the aquarium.
- Measure specific gravity. For reef aquarium 1.020 - 1.025
at 24C (75F) is recommended. NOTE: 540 g of Vibrant Sea is formulated
to create 20 liters of saltwater at a specific gravity of 1.020 and 620 g
will create 20 liters at 1.023.
- Adjust salt level accordingly. If specific gravity is too
low, add more Vibrant Sea. If too high, add more dechlorinated or
purified water.
- Change 20% of aquarium water every two weeks (or as necessary) to maintain optimum water quality.
USAGE NOTE: NEVER mix salt in an aquarium containing
animals. In New Aquariums: Transfer animals to the aquarium AFTER salt
is completely mixed and aerated and specific gravity has been adjusted.
Use Seachem's Stability to avoid new tank syndrome and prevent unnecessary animal losses in a new system.
CAUTION: Vibrant Sea IS NOT FOR HUMAN
CONSUMPTION. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. Contact in dry form may
cause skin or eye irritation. In case of eye contact, completely flush
eye(s) with cool water and seek medical attention
