To decide which of the Tropic Marin seasalts
are appropriate for your tank please use the chart below to compare the
specifics of your tank and count the plus for every sea salt. |

Comment |
|
… you have fish and invertebrates with a high food demand and high
metabolic activity. |
+++ |
|
++ |
TTropic Marin Sea Salt neutralizes harmful metabolic products by a strong
buffering system. |
|
… the alkalinity (KH) tends to drop below 6°dKH. |
+++ |
|
++ |
Tropic Marin Seasalt adds hydrogen carbonates stabilizing the buffering
capacity of the tank. |
|
… the number of calcareous animals is rather low, so the calcium level
does not vary strongly even without additional calcium sources. |
+++ |
|
++ |
Tropic Marin Sea Salt creates a natural calcium level, adapted to a
powerful buffering system. |
|
… there is a wide variety of organisms; your tank is a mixed community
tank. |
+++ |
|
+++ |
Tropic Marin Sea Salt as well as the new PRO-REEF provide an ideal
environment for the care of all marine organisms without emphasis on
specific organisms. |
|
… there is a slight additional demand for calcium and carbonates, which is
satisfied by modest additions of calcium through supplements or by a
calcium reactor. |
+++ |
|
+++ |
Small additions of supplements or a calcium reactor with low flow rate
will not greatly affect the water system in the tank: Tropic Marin Sea
Salt, as well as PRO-REEF, provide stable water conditions over a long
period of time. |
|
… the number of hard corals is quite high: you have a reef tank with a
high demand for calcium and magnesium. |
++ |
|
+++ |
The new Tropic Marin PROREEF has been specifically developed for modern
reef tanks. By adjusting the ratio between calcium and magnesium
concentration, a reliable supply of calcium and magnesium is provided. |
|
… buffering and calcium supply is done by high quantities of supplements
or by a calcium reactor with high flow rate. |
++ |
|
+++ |
Modern methods of calcium supplementation strongly influence the calcium-
/alkalinity balance which may also lead to precipitation. PRO-REEF
guarantees a sustainable, stable equilibrium and prevents undesirable
effects. |
|
… the alkalinity tends to increase to more than 9°dKH. |
++ |
|
+++ |
PRO-REEF lowers the danger of climbing alkalinity by an optimized
buffering system. |
