Red Sea Coral Pro Salt 20kg (Makes 600L)

Premium grade, high Alkalinity

A premium grade, high alkalinity salt that is specifically formulated for reef aquariums.
It contains elevated and balanced levels of the foundation elements (calcium, magnesium, and bicarbonates)

Ideal for mixed reefs and SPS frag tanks.
It has an alkalinity of 12 dKH, which is ideal for these types of tanks.
Higher dissolvability than other salts, which means that it only takes about 20 minutes from bucket to tank.
This makes your mixing routine far more convenient.

In addition to its high alkalinity and fast dissolve time, also contains a full complement of trace elements.
This ensures that your corals have everything they need.

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 skeleton. This ratio must be maintained especially when increasing the levels of the foundation elements above the natural sea levels.
