Step 3 – Aragonite Enhancers
Reef Essential® Aragonite B™ Powder is designed to provide carbonate, hydrogen carbonate & buffers to help stabilise pH and build strong aragonite. Carbonates help to stabilise pH within saltwater aquariums due to their buffering capacity. When used alongside our Reef Essential® Aragonite A™ & Reef Essential® Aragonite C™ supplements, your aquarium will receive the necessary major, minor and trace elements required for coral health. For additional top up (if required) of minor & trace elements, we recommend using our Step 4 – Bioactive Colour Elements™. Recommended alkalinity concentration = 7.4-10.5dKH (132-188ppm). Reef Essential® Aragonite A™Powder & Reef Essential® Aragonite B™ Powder powders are formulated specifically to the calcium carbonate relationship in order to help provide a 1:1 dosing ratio.
