Prodibio AlkaReef+ 1000ml

Water pH is an essential parameter to monitor because major variations  of its level are harmful to reef aquarium inhabitants. In this  environment, carbonate and hydrogen carbonate ions are responsible for  the biggest part of the global alkalinity. Their buffer capacity also  helps to reduce the unwanted pH variations.

Carbonate and hydrogen carbonate ions are also used by calcifying  organisms, such as corals and coralline algae, in order to form the  calcium carbonate of their rigid structures. It is therefore vital that  these ions are regularly added to reef aquariums.

AlkaReef+ contains carbonate ions to maintain your aquarium at its  optimum alkalinity level. It works with CalciReef+, a calcium hydro-gel  that slowly releases hydrogen carbonate ions into the water.

We therefore recommend that you add one ampoule of CalciReef+ for every  two ampoules of AlkaReef+ you use. The combination of these two products  generates an ionic balance close to that of natural sea water, but we  still recommend that you regularly change the water in your aquarium.  AlkaReef+ is gluconate free.

2 ml AlkaReef+ per 10 liters of aquarium water increases the KH by 1.
