Red Sea's Reef Foundation C is a supplement dedicated to maintaining magnesium in reef aquariums. It contributes to the ionic stability of artificial seawater and the balanced formation of coral skeletons.
Calcium, magnesium, strontium, and carbonates are the fundamental elements of coral skeletons. These elements must be present in balanced proportions to ensure healthy and sustainable growth of reef organisms.
Magnesium plays an essential role in the chemical stability of the reef aquarium. It contributes to the balance between calcium and alkalinity, limiting undesirable precipitations and promoting optimal conditions for coral calcification.
Reef Foundation C contains a blend of magnesium salts and is an integral part of Red Sea's Reef Care program, designed for precise and consistent control of water parameters.
| Form | Dosage | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Liquid supplement | 1 ml per 100 L | Increases magnesium by 1 ppm |
| Powder supplement | 1 g per 100 L | Increases magnesium by 1.34 ppm |
The powder version allows for the preparation of a stock solution, with 1 kg yielding approximately 1.7 L of concentrated solution.
A stable magnesium level contributes to the overall stability of the aquarium, supports coral growth, and aids in the proper functioning of biological processes related to calcification.
Reef Foundation C is available in various formats to meet the needs of reef aquariums, including the 1000 ml size for regular use.
Reef Foundation C Mg is recommended as part of a regular monitoring of parameters to maintain a stable and favorable chemical balance for corals.
