formula designed to meet the needs of today`s advanced hobbyist. Coral
Pro Salt has been specifically formulated for use with "mineral free"
Reverse Osmosis, or soft tap water and contains the elevated levels of
calcium and buffer capacity that provide the extended availability of
these elements, essential for vibrant coral growth. Utilizing the same
natural sea minerals used in Red Sea Salt the new Coral Pro Salt will
enable all reverse osmosis users and reef enthusiast a superior product

- Chemically balanced formula to support the most delicate Corals and other marine life
- Reaches a stable, natural pH shortly after mixing
- Free of Nitrates & Phosphates
- Produced by a small batch process to ensure homogeneity and consistency of the salt mixture
Corals,
calcareous algae and other invertebrates use large amounts of Calcium
for the building of their skeletons or shells. The Calcium level in
natural seawater at 35ppt is approximately 400 ppm.
The Coral Pro
formula provides elevated levels of calcium at the "lower than natural"
salinities preferred in reef aquariums. Table shows Calcium levels of
Coral Pro mixed in RO water at 24°C 75°F and salinity.
