Tropic Marin Carbo-Calcium 500ml

Ultra concentrated calcium and carbonate hardness foradvanced reef aquarists

With Tropic Marin^® Carbo-Calcium, the totalcalcium and carbonate hardness needs of a typical reef aquarium can becovered with a single solution, without any additional unwanted compounds orexcess carbon dioxide being created.

Minerals are consumedthrough the growth of organisms and other processes in the aquarium and musttherefore be supplemented regularly. These include mainly calcium and carbonatehardness elements for the growth of the calcareous skeletons of stony corals,red coralline algae and other reef organisms. The special co-ordinatedcomponents in Tropic Marin^® Carbo-Calcium provideexcellent care conditions in only a single solution.

Tropic Marin^® Carbo-Calcium preventsall the side effects of other methods of calcium hardness: the pH remainsstable; there is no excess CO₂ and there is no risk of unwantedphosphates being introduced through coral breakage. In addition, there isneither a creeping increase in salinity, nor increased oxygen consumptionthrough carbon compounds.

Benefits:

• For the first time, the calcium and carbonatesupply is possible with only a single solution
• Every day, a few ml of highly concentratedsolution are enough to cover the entire calcium and carbonate hardness needs
• Suitable for all aquarium sizes
• No formation of by-products (e.g. sodiumchloride); the salinity and the ion balance are not altered
• No formation of excess carbon dioxide
• Suitable for an aquarium stocked with softcorals, LPS, SPS and/or other filter feeders
• Easy to apply – suitable both for manualdosing and for dosing pumps
  How to use:

Start with a daily dose of5 ml of Tropic Marin^® Carbo-Calcium per 100 litres(26 US-gal) of aquarium system volume. Increase the daily dosage – bycontinuous control of the alkalinity – weekly by 2.5 ml per 100 litres (26US-gal) of aquarium system volume, until a constant carbonate hardness of 7 to9 °dH is reached. At the same time, check the calcium concentration in theaquarium – it should be between 400-440 mg/l.

Do not exceed a maximum daily dose of 25 ml of TropicMarin^® Carbo-Calcium per 100 litres (26 US-gal) ofaquarium system volume.

1000 ml Tropic Marin^® Carbo-Calcium contain40,000 mg calcium and 5,600 °carbonate hardness.

Use the new dosingcalculator for an easy determination of the required amount ofdosage for your aquarium. To refill this solution we recommend the newproduct Tropic Marin® Carbo-Calcium Powder which has to bedissolved in reverse osmosis water.
