Coralife Scientific Grade Marine Salt
replicates seawater chemistry, delivering every major, minor, and trace elements
required for the success of your reef or fish-only aquarium. The Micro-Process
provides the proper pH and optimal levels of calcium and magnesium. It is fast
dissolving and phospate and nitrate free.
Instructions:
Use dechlorinated tap water, distilled, deionized, or reverse osmosis water. Mix
the salt in a separate container before adding to the aquarium. Add the salt to
appropriate amounts of water (about ½ cup per gallon). Aerate the mixture to
attain the proper gas equilibrium. Adjust the salinity (specific gravity) to the
desired levels using a hydrometer. Store the remainder of the salt in a dry
place.
To increase the salinity, add salt. To decrease the salinity, add water. A
specific gravity of 1.021 – 1.023 is recommended.
Specifications:
Approximately .29lbs (about ½ cup) of Coralife Scientific grade marine salt
dissolved in 1 gallon of distilled water at 78 degrees F, will yield a solution
with the following properties.
