The Aquaforest most advanced reef salt
Aquaforest Hybrid Pro Salt is the most advanced sea salt created for use in the most demanding marine aquariums. Its unique formula makes it a unique product in the aquarium market.
Hybrid Pro Salt was inspired by years of observation of aquariums run on natural seawater and those using chemically pure laboratory salt. It is impossible to determine unequivocally which method is “the better one,” so we decided to combine the strengths of one and the other in one product—Aquaforest Hybrid Pro Salt.
Hybrid Pro Salt is the most advanced aquarium salt formula that combines the best of both worlds. On the one hand, we use the chemically purest laboratory salt, which guarantees the stability and predictability of water parameters. On the other hand, we add flakes of natural salt extracted from the purest waters of the Atlantic to ensure a wealth of micronutrients. In addition, the salt is enriched with probiotic bacteria. These beneficial microorganisms take care of water purity and control nitrate and phosphate levels, which affects the healthy growth of corals and their proper colouration. This is especially important in breeding the most demanding SPS corals.
It is worth noting that Hybrid Pro Salt is much more than just salt. It’s a comprehensive formula that provides corals with everything they need for proper development. It contains micro- and macro-elements in the right amounts, as well as amino acids, and supports the health and condition of underwater fauna, such as vitamin C.
Unique hybrid salt formula designed by specialists
Hybrid Pro Salt is the result of years of research and experience. We collected and then tested water samples from coral reefs in Egypt, Kenya, Indonesia and Fiji. As a result, we gained confidence that the parameters obtained after preparing the brine perfectly meet the needs of even the most demanding corals. Unlike the ocean, an aquarium is a closed system in which the consumption of selected elements takes place much faster, so we decided to raise the levels of the most consumed micronutrients, such as strontium and iodine. All this is to create a formula that will support the healthy development of fish and corals daily.
What makes Hybrid Pro Salt unique?
- Hybrid Pro Salt incorporates chemically pure, laboratory-made salt with natural sea salt flakes from the cleanest waters of the North Atlantic Ocean.
- Proprietary blend of probiotic bacteria to reduce nitrate and phosphate levels while increasing colour intensity and growth potential often inhibited by high phosphate levels.
- It contains a number of micro and macro trace elements and is enriched with the highest-quality amino acids and vitamins, which aid in immunity and natural metabolic functions.
By choosing Aquaforest products, you can be sure that your salt will be safe for your aquarium and that the parameters obtained will not differ from those declared. Each batch of Aquaforest Hybrid Pro Salt is tested in a specialised laboratory. An experienced team of laboratory technicians performs a thorough analysis on two ICP-OES spectrometers, one for micronutrient content and the other for macronutrient content. The results of these tests are available online.
Start with RODI water, which should be about 24°C (75°F).
For a salinity of 33 ppt (1.025 S.G.), add about 390 g (13.75 oz.) of salt to 10 l (2.7 US gal) of water.
Stir vigorously for about 15 minutes until the salt dissolves completely and the water becomes clear.
Check the resulting salinity with a refractometer before use.
Ready! The saltwater is ready for use.
Remember to store the salt in a dry and dark place.
After dissolving, the salt should be used within 3 days.
Evaporation can change the parameters of the water, so store freshly mixed salt water in a tightly closed container if you don’t use it right away.
If you store the salt for several days, recheck the salinity before using it.
Safety data sheet available upon request
We recommend keeping the dKH between 7.5 and 8.5 to help the probiotic bacteria reproduce. Higher/lower levels may reduce bacterial activity.
When setting up new aquariums, we recommend introducing the first fish/corals no earlier than 10-14 days after the tank is established and water parameters stabilised.
Recommended salinity for different aquarium types:
Macro and microelements in the water have different levels depending on the salinity:
