Tropical Marine Power Advanced Calcium – 500 ml

The 500 ml container of Tropical Marine Power Advanced Calcium is a top of the line additive for marine aquariums, but is designed specifically for smaller aquariums occupied primarily by soft corals. Being one of the main macroelements in sea water, calcium is incredibly important to the growth and development of SPS, LPS, soft corals and other organisms such as snails, corraline algae and mussles, which consumes calcium directly from the water. A deficit of calcium can dramatically slow coral growth, but can also negatively affect their overall condition and longterm health. Calcium consumption depends on many factors, such as: water temperature, lighting, type of stock in the aquarium and many others, and its level requires regular checking. The better conditions in the aquarium, the faster the corals grow and the faster they consume calcium from the water. Frequent testing and monitoring will ensure consistently accurate levels of calcium in the aquarium.

Tropical’s Marine Power Advanced method is based on dosing identical amounts of three supplements: Marine Power Advanced Calcium, Marine Power Advanced KH/Alkalinity and Marine Power Advanced Mineral Salt, therefore it is crucial that the preparation of the solutions is carried out according to the above instructions. Although it is possible to dose the solutions manually, in the Marine Power Advanced method we recommend using dosing pumps that make the supplementation easier and more accurate.
