Continuum Aquatics Coral Elements N 250ml

Vitamin & trace mineral micronutrient complex for live corals & reef aquaria.

Features

• Coral Elements N vitamin and mineral micronutrient complex replaces crucial minor and trace minerals lost to carbon filtration, protein skimming and ozone

• Provides essential vitamins for growth of live corals and other invertebrates

• Contains no heavy metals, phosphates, silicates, gluconates, or polygluconates

Use in aquarium keeping

• Corals acquire vitamins and minerals directly from the surrounding seawater, as well as from ingested food.

• Regular addition of Coral Elements•N vitamin and mineral micronutrient complex provides for availablity of these nutrients.

• Minerals influence the coloration of all marine species including corals and clams and are important in many of the chemical reactions that take place in living tissues.

• In addition to Coral Elements•N, it is recommended that you also use Coral Exponential to provide needed amino acids for coral tissue growth.

• The hobbyist should pay close attention to the alkalinity, or KH of the system and closely monitor the calcium, magnesium and strontium levels.

• Continuum recommends that you maintain a calcium level of between 410 and 450 mg/L (ppm), an alkalinity level of 7 to 11 dKH (2.5 to 4 meq/L), and a magnesium level of 1250 to 1350 mg/L (ppm).

• Note: Aquarists keeping SPS corals should consider keeping alkalinity at 7 to no more than 9 dKH (2.5 to 3.21 meq/L). 

Directions

• Shake well prior to use.

• Add 1 capful (5 ml) per 50 US-gallons (200 L) of marine aquarium water 1 to 2 times per week.

Expert use

• Dosing through use of a drip system is a superior method of addition.

• Do not mix with buffers or alkalinity supplements prior to addition.

• You may mix it with strontium, magnesium, and many other supplements.

• It is not possible, with current test kits, to measure the exact dosage of Coral Elements•N vitamin and trace minerals to add, so to dose, simply add the above amount to the doser. In other words, add 1 capful to the amount of solution that the doser will add in 2 to 4 days per 50 US-gallons (200 L) of marine aquarium water.
