Reef Crystals enriched blend sea salt offers a premium formulation designed specifically for sophisticated reef aquariums. This advanced sea salt contains elevated levels of calcium, vitamins, and carefully selected trace elements, providing essential nutrients that are often depleted rapidly in thriving reef environments. Developed with precision, it was the first enriched seawater formulation available to aquarium enthusiasts, ensuring optimal support for coral and invertebrate growth.
One of the key benefits of this sea salt is the inclusion of a special additive that detoxifies excess heavy metals, such as copper, commonly found at elevated levels in domestic water supplies. This feature helps maintain a safer, healthier aquatic environment. Reef Crystals salt dissolves quickly and completely, making it compatible with all types of marine aquariums.
Every batch undergoes rigorous biological and chemical testing to guarantee consistent composition and uniformity, reflecting the highest standards in saltwater maintenance. Engineered to closely match natural seawater, this enriched blend enhances the vitality and resilience of your reef inhabitants.
Usage Instructions:
- Mix Reef Crystals with ordinary dechlorinated tap or purified water. For small quantities, use 1/2 cup of salt per U.S. gallon of water. Stir vigorously to ensure thorough mixing.
- Although the solution can be used immediately, aerate the water until oxygen and carbon dioxide levels reach equilibrium for best results.
- Measure the specific gravity or salinity, aiming for a recommended range of 1.020–1.024 at 77°F.
- Adjust salt levels as needed: add more salt if specific gravity is too low or more dechlorinated water if too high.
- Perform a 20% water change every two weeks to maintain optimum water quality.
Important Notes: Never mix salt directly in an aquarium containing animals. For new setups, add aquatic life only after the salt has fully dissolved, aerated, and specific gravity has been properly adjusted.
