Description
Red Sea Coral Colors B is a complex of Potassium and Boron
- Potassium plays an essential role in the transportation of coral nutrients within the soft tissue (including the nutrients provided by the Zooxanthellae)
- Potassium and Boron significantly affect the alkalinity of a coral?s soft tissue and the formation of aragonite in its skeleton
- Potassium is related to the red chroma-proteins
- Weekly dosing - Soft Corals
- Test the Color Elements every week and dose each supplement to replenish back to the optimal levels
Daily dosing - SPS corals:
- Ensure that all of the Color Elements are at optimal values and run the aquarium for 4 days at a stable salinity (compensate for evaporation daily) without adding any
supplements
- At the end of the 4 days test the Color Elements and calculate the "4 day dosage" of each supplement to replenish back to the optimal levels
- Add the "4 day dosage" to the system
- Divide this "4 day dosage" by 4 and use as the daily dosage for the next week
Specifications:
- After a week of adding the daily dosage, test the Color Elements and calculate the adjusting dosage of each supplement to replenish back to the optimal levels
- If the adjusting dosage is significantly different from the previous daily dosage amend (increase/decrease) the daily dosage as appropriate
- If the measured level of a specific element is above the optimal level wait for the excess of the element to be depleted before restarting the daily supplementation with the amended daily dosage
- Continue testing all of the elements every week and make adjustments to the daily dosages as required
- As your corals grow or you add or remove livestock the uptake of the elements in your aquarium will gradually change
- It is recommended to keep a log book of the weekly measurements and dosages
- If you miss one or more days of supplementing add the complete amount that you have missed but do not exceed the maximum recommended daily increase for any of the elements
