 | Salifert All In One 250 ml
Salifert All In One
Calcium, strontium, carbonate (alkalinity)and amino acids are the major constituents of calcareous algae, the skeletal material of hard corals and the skeletal needles of soft/leather corals. Growth and multiplication of these organisms means depletion of those substances. Trace elements are also very important as explained above.
Salifert's All in One supplement is highly concentrated and contains approx. 35000 ppm calcium, corresponding amounts of biologically-activated bicarbonate and 700 ppm strontium. The calcium is acetate based and, unlike gluconate-based products, is converted within minutes to calcium bicarbonate. Occasionally an additional boost of alkalinity with Salifert's KH+pH buffer is recommended to compensate for alkalinity lost by, for example, decaying food. Iodine should also be supplemented for the best result

 | Salifert Trace Hard 250ml
Salifert Trace Hard
Trace Hard - a trace element mix for hard corals.
Trace elements are elements that are present in natural seawater in a concentration lower than approx. 1 mg/L or ppm. Some of these elements are essential to make many biological processes possible:
Manganese is essential for photosynthesis and many biochemical reactions associated with it.
Iron is required by some organisms to absorb essential nutrients.
Cobalt is essential for the formation of several coral pigments.
Zinc, like manganese, is essential for photosynthesis and also for the formation of calcium carbonate by corals.

 | Salifert Trace Soft 250ml
Salifert Trace Soft
Trace Soft - a trace element mix for soft/leather corals and coralline algae.
Trace elements are elements that are present in natural seawater in a concentration lower than approx. 1 mg/L or ppm. Some of these elements are essential to make many biological processes possible:
Manganese is essential for photosynthesis and many biochemical reactions associated with it.
Iron is required by some organisms to absorb essential nutrients.
Cobalt is essential for the formation of several coral pigments.
Zinc, like manganese, is essential for photosynthesis and also for the formation of calcium carbonate by corals.

 | Salifert Natural Iodine 250 ml
Salifert Natural Iodine
Corals require iodine as a de-toxifier, as a protection against uv-radiation and as a natural defence against many parasites.
Salifert's Natural Iodine supplement contains iodate and also some iodide in similar proportions found in NSW. Both are present as their calcium and magnesium salts because Salifert's research has shown that iodate is complexed with calcium and magnesium in NSW. Another advantage of using these salts is that, unlike when potassium or sodium salts are used, no ionic imbalance is created.
Salifert stands alone in offering such an advanced, reliable and well thought-out formulation.

 | Salifert Coral Food 250 ml
Salifert's Coral Food contains all the nutrients required by corals in highly nutritional particles ranging in size from 5-150 microns, as well as dissolved natural polymeric and monomeric nutrients. When dosed according to the instructions corals will have sufficient food to thrive without polluting the water. The organic load caused by this supplement is comparable to what is found in pristine seawater. This food is also ideal for sponges, tunicates, feather duster worms and many other organisms. Coral Food replicates most of the food found in nature where corals thrive.

 | Salifert Coral Grower 250 ml
Salifert Coral Grower
Coral Grower contains calcium, strontium and the trace elements (except iodine) required for growth and multiplication by corals and the beautiful encrusting pink and red coralline algae.
The trace elements included in Coral Grower allow organisms to carry out many biological processes. For example:-
Manganese is essential for the many bio-chemical reactions which make photosynthesis possible.
Iron allows several organisms to absorb nutrients.
Cobalt is essential for the formation of several coral pigments.
Zinc, like manganese, is essential for photosynthesis and is also used in the formation of calcium carbonate by corals.

 | Salifert KH + pH Buffer 500 ml
Salifert KH + PH Buffer
Salifert's KH + pH Buffer is a highly concentrated, fast dissolving powder which increases alkalinity (carbonate hardness) and stabilizes the pH at the correct value.
By doing this, it contributes significantly to the health of all aquarium inhabitants including corals, coralline algae and fish.
To keep corals and encrusting algae in good health an alkalinity of approx. 3.2 meq/L or 9 dKH (expressed in German carbonate hardness value) should be maintained.
This supplement contains carbonate and bicarbonates. It does not contain boron since the depletion is different in different tanks and is not linked to alkalinity or carbonate hardness depletion.

 | Salifert Coral Calcium 250ml
Salifert Coral Calcium
Quite often too low a calcium concentration retards the growth of corals and calcareous algae. Natural seawater contains 420-450 mg/L calcium and this is also the value we should strive for in a stable aquarium where the fluctuation in calcium content should not be more than approximately 15 mg/L.
The addition of Coral Calcium immediately makes 100% calcium available to your corals and other calcium-requiring organisms.
If calcium is depleted because of the growth of corals and coralline algae then supplements such as Salifert's KH+pH Buffer and Strontium are also required. Since, together with calcium, they form the major ingredients of shells, coralline algae and the skeletal material of corals.

 | Salifert Magnesium Powder 250ml
Salifert Magnesium Powder
A too low magnesium concentration (below 1300 mg/l) results in problems maintaining correct calcium and alkalinity levels. Correct alkalinity and calcium levels are beneficial for coral growth.
Magnesium Powder from Salifert is highly concentrated and will not only increase the magnesium concentration but will also correct the ionic imbalance. Once the magnesium concentration is between approx 1300 and 1500 mg/L use Salifert's Liquid Magnesium supplement to maintain the magnesium concentration.

 | Salifert Natural Strontium 250ml
Salifert Natural Strontium
Strontium is important for accelerating coral and calcareous algae growth. Salifert's Natural Strontium supplement is an easy to use formulation designed to avoid a too low or too high strontium concentration.
Salifert's Natural Strontium supplement contains predominantly strontium sulphate, together with some other ingredients, to avoid an ionic imbalance. This sulfate form is significantly more effective and less toxic than the commonly used strontium chloride and is the form in which it is present in natural sea water.
The use of Coral Calcium as a calcium supplement is highly advised. In fact, for best results, Natural Strontium and Coral Calcium are designed to be used together.
