Optimal coral growth and coloration in refugium-free aquariums.
Simplify your supplementation routine without spending more!
Fixed ratio
Our long-term research has revealed that in refugium-free reef systems, all 36 Major, Minor and Trace elements, and even the components of Alkalinity, are used in a relatively fixed ratio, allowing you to replenish all element groups according to measured Calcium uptake.
Dosage according to Calcium
As Calcium is the key indicator of coral growth, the 4-part program is based on a single weekly Calcium measurement, which determines the dosages of the 4 parts.
Complete Reef Care explained
Complete Reef Care is a simple yet comprehensive 4-part supplementation program for optimal coral growth and coloration. It is based on a single weekly Calcium measurement, which determines the dosages of the 4 parts.
The success of a coral reef aquarium depends on maintaining the right water parameters to provide the stable environment required by corals. To achieve this, start by using balanced seawater prepared with Red Sea Salt or Coral Pro salt, for example, and use complete, balanced supplements formulated to work together over the long term, without altering the water's ionic balance.
Red Sea's 4-part Complete Reef Care is the result of years of research into the physiological requirements of SPS, LPS and soft corals in the reef aquarium and practical experience with the original 7-part Reef Care Program on tens of thousands of reef aquariums worldwide.
This research has shown that there are 36 Major, Minor and Trace elements that are regularly consumed in aquarium water and play an active role in coral growth and coloration, as well as other biological activities in the reef environment. In reef systems without refugium, coral growth is the most important biological process. This growth affects water chemistry, and the 36 elements, including the components of alkalinity, are used in a relatively fixed ratio. As Calcium is the key indicator of coral growth, all elements can be supplemented according to measured Calcium consumption.
Complete Reef Care divides the 36 Major, Minor and Trace elements into four parts to ensure stability and bioavailability.
Part #1 contains: Calcium, Magnesium, Strontium & Barium.
Part #2 contains: KH/Alkalinity components.
Part #3 contains : Potassium, Boron and the halogens Iodine, Bromine and Fluorine.
Part #4 contains: Iron, Manganese, Cobalt, Copper, Aluminium, Zinc, Chromium, Nickel and 18 other bioactive trace elements.
