Red Sea Reef Foundation Pro Multi Test kit (Ca,Alk,Mg) Calcium, Magnesium & Alkalinity

A successful coral reef aquarium depends on how well you maintain the water parameters which are the key to a stable coral environment. All of the elements found in natural seawater play a role in providing optimal water parameters, but some are more significant than others. These elements, the foundation of the reef environment, include the three major elements: Calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg) and Carbonates (CO3). All three have a major effect on water chemistry (pH stability, Alkalinity, ionic strength) and on many of the coral’s biological processes (skeleton formation, ions exchange, photosynthesis).

The foundation elements complement each other in the formation of coral skeleton. If not balanced correctly one of the elements will quickly limit healthy coral growth.  Using Red Sea test kits will allow you to accurately measure these levels and guide you on your path to reefing success.  All of the foundation kits include analytical grade glass vials and an easy-to-use, high precision Titrator
