Trace Colors B – Potassium & Boron – 500 ml

Potassium Supplement for Reef Aquarium

Trace Colors B is part of the Red Sea Trace Colors program and provides potassium as well as boron, two elements naturally present in the soft tissues and skeleton of corals.

These elements are directly involved in several biological processes, including the production of pigments responsible for the red hues observed in many hard corals.

Biological Role of Potassium and Boron

Potassium plays a central role in the transport of nutrients within the soft tissues of corals, including those provided by symbiotic zooxanthellae.

Potassium and boron also influence the alkalinity of coral tissues and actively participate in the formation of aragonite in the coral skeleton.

Potassium is closely associated with red chromoproteins, directly contributing to the intensity and stability of red colorations.

Consumption in Reef Aquarium

In active reef systems, potassium and boron are continuously consumed by biological processes and coral growth.

Appropriate supplementation helps maintain stable levels, promoting harmonious growth and lasting coloration of corals.

Compatibility with Reef Care Program

Coral Colors B is designed to be used within the Red Sea Reef Care program.

To optimize the expression of coral colors, the joint use of NO3:PO4-X Red Sea is recommended to maintain suitable nutrient levels.

Dosage

1 ml increases the potassium concentration by 1.75 ppm for 100 liters of water.

The dosage should be adjusted according to the actual consumption of the tank and monitored using appropriate tests.
