Seachem Reef Trace Element Supplement for the Reef Aquarium - 8.5 oz

Reef Trace supplies a broad range of trace elements demonstrated to be necessary for proper reef health and growth. Trace elements are normally depleted by utilization, oxidation, and precipitation. The latter two processes occur more rapidly than with other micronutrients. This makes it important to restore trace elements on a regular basis. Reef Trace may be used alone or in conjunction with Reef Plus. The best results are obtained when both are used. Reef Trace is nitrate/phosphate free.

Replenishment of a number of trace elements is required to maintain an environment ideal for the growth and reproduction of marine life, but while the importance of trace elements has been recognized by aquarists for many years, the physiological reasons are not fully understood. The chemical elements in seawater are varied, and, likewise, their addition to the aquarium in trace quantities has varied effects on a variety of saltwater plants and invertebrate species. In general, though, these elements are important for metabolic processes and pigment formation.

DIRECTIONS: Use 1 capful (5 mL) for every 80 L (20 US gallons) twice a week. When used in conjunction with Reef Plus, dose on alternate days.
