AQUAFOREST Component +1 +2 +3 (3x5000ml)

Component 1+2+3+: The key to the balanced macro and trace elements dosage.

The chemical composition of Component 1+2+3+ is based on the method developed by H. Balling. The formula has been fine-tuned in our lab and enriched with trace elements that are fundamental for maintaining marine aquarium organisms in good form. As a result, we have composed 3 fluids intended for regular dosing in equal amounts.

Component 1+2+3+ is designed to fulfil coral's demands not only in terms of Magnesium and Calcium but also in terms of other elements that require careful and systematic dosing but are notoriously difficult to assess.

Product features:

• Experience-based formula
• Ideal ratio of macro & trace elements
• Perfectly balanced fluids to meet all the aquarium’s needs
• Provides ionic balance due to Reef Mineral Salt content

Precise dosing made easy: Component 1+2+3+ for coral’s vitality

Dosage: Needs to be adjusted according to the consumption of macro-nutrients and based on critical water parameters like Calcium, Magnesium and KH.

If one or two parameters are still not balanced, we recommend continuing to administer equal doses of each component and using one of our additives (Calcium, Magnesium, KH Buffer) to restore the desired level(s).

In order to maintain an adequate amount of trace elements in aquarium water, Magnesium and Calcium levels need to be within the recommended range (Ca 380-460 ppm, Mg 1180-1460 ppm).

A typical aquarium with an average number of hard corals requires approximately 25ml of each component per 100 l (27 US gal) of water daily. In order to keep the parameters stable, we advise splitting the daily dose into as many small doses as it’s possible. 

Component 1+ contains Ca, Sr, Ba, Co, Mn, Cu, Fe, Zn, Ni, Cr, Mo (25 ml dissolved in 100 l/27 US gal raises Ca by 4,5 ppm).

Component 2+ contains NaHCO3, F, I. (25 ml dissolved in 100 l/27 US gal raises KH by 0,65 dKH (Alk: 0,23 meq/l)).

Component 3+ contains Mg, Reef Mineral Salt, K, B, Li (25 ml dissolved in 100 l/27 US gal raises Mg by 0,38 ppm).

Component 3 contains Reef Mineral Salt, which is necessary to stabilise aquarium parameters.
