Reef Salt 2kg

Aquaforest Reef Salt is a synthetic sea salt mix for keepers of coral reef aquaria who need a predictable base water with a defined ion profile. The 2 kg bag mixes into 100 litres of water to reach standard reef salinity, so it suits marine tanks where water parameters must be kept stable.

Why it matters

• The salt composition is designed for coral husbandry, with micro and macro elements intended to cover corals' requirements for growth and coloration.
• Bromide is present at a measured level of 0.2–0.5 mg/l, which is documented in the water parameters below.
• The salt can be used in tanks running ozone-assisted filtration.
• For new aquaria, the manufacturer recommends waiting 10–14 days after filling before adding the first animals.

What it works with

The salt is intended for marine reef aquaria, particularly those housing corals and other invertebrates that depend on calcium, magnesium and strontium levels. Its parameters, including Ca 410–430 mg/l, Mg 1320–1350 mg/l and dKH 7.4–8.0, make it a fit for reef systems that are also dosed or filtered with ozone.
