Coral Pro Salt - The Foundation Elements - It's all in the balance
Red Sea's Coral Pro Salt - foundation elements Formula
Red Sea's Coral Pro Salt contains biologically balanced, elevated levels of the foundation elements (Calcium,
Magnesium, Carbonates) necessary for sustainable, accelerated coral
growth. Coral Pro Salt is ideal for reef aquariums, in particular for
LPS and SPS corals, and for growing coral frags.
Natural seawater includes over 70 chemical elements and although most
of the elements influence the water parameters, a few of them have a
more significant role in its overall chemical stability.
These elements form the foundation of the reef environment and they
include the three major elements: calcium, magnesium and bi-carbonates.
These three foundation elements have a major effect on the water
chemistry (pH stability, alkalinity, seawater ionic strength) and on
many of the coral's biological processes (skeleton formation, ion-
exchange, photosynthesis).
Unlike the natural reef environment, where there is an immense
reservoir of the foundation elements, the reef aquarium has limited
resources that are quickly depleted by the aquarium inhabitants.
Therefore, in order to enable sustainable coral growth it is necessary
to maintain higher than natural levels of the foundation elements.
Original research carried out in Red Sea's laboratory has shown that
in a closed system (an aquarium) a specific ratio between the foundation
elements of calcium, magnesium and carbonates (alkalinity) is necessary
for coral vitality and the formation of a robust aragonite coral
skeleton. This ratio must be maintained especially when increasing the
levels of the foundation elements above the natural sea levels.
Red Sea's Coral Pro salt is made according to these
ideal ratios and remove the need to adjust the levels of foundation
elements after water changes and significantly improving the wellbeing
of corals.
