Aquaforest Aquaforest Build (10/50ml)
AF Build accelerates the absorption of calcium and carbon which are crucial for the development of hard corals. By providing the corals with all the necessary ingredients, it facilitates and accelerates calcification, favourably affecting the growth rate. In addition, AF Build raises the pH level in reef aquariums. By keeping the pH at a proper, constant level, it additionally promotes coral growth. Long-term pH level aberrations result with slower calcification, inhibition of limestone algae growth and in extreme cases may completely stop the calcification process. Regular usage of AF Build prevents unfavourable fluctuations of pH levels and, by balancing the parameters in the aquarium, it improves the clarity of water and supports the growth of corals. Due to its unique properties, AF Build reduces the amount of lower-order algae and inhibits the growth of pathogenic cyanobacteria. Decomposing food may be one of the causes of the drop in pH, therefore AF Build should be used during intensive coral feeding, especially when using a highly nutritional AF Energy supplement. AF Build contains: iodides, calcium carbonate. Dosage: 1 drop per 100 l (27 US gal) of water every other day after lights out. Do not dilute. Do not mix together with other products in one container. The product can be dosed by a dosing pump, provided it dispenses with drops. Once opened store in the fridge, if the temperature exceeds 24°C (75°F). All coral supplements have a recommended dosage of 1 drop per 100 l (27 US gal) of water, though, it’s important that each aquarium is different and the dosage may vary depending on the coral cast. We recommend starting dosing foods and supplements from half of the dose (even ¼) and observing the corals and their reactions to the administered food. Once the aquarium shows no sign of overdose, we recommend increasing dosage to the target dose. In order to facilitate the food absorption, SPS and LPS corals should be fed after the light is out. Corals such as Zoanthus, Ricordea and other mushroom corals should be fed during the day. In order to ensure the best nutrients absorption, all supplements and foods for corals should be dispensed directly into the aquarium. During the feeding we recommend switching off the skimmer for about an hour. Do not overtighten the screw, otherwise the cover might be damaged.

Aquaforest Aquaforest Calcium (850/3500g) (increase calcium in reef tank)
An agent for maintaining constant calcium levels and pH adjustment in reef aquariums. In sea water, the constant value of calcium is essential for the proper development of corals and coralline algae. The recommended level of calcium in reef aquaria is 380-460 mg/l (ppm). Dosage: Dissolve 50 g of Calcium in 1000 ml RODI water. Dosage should be determined by water test results and corals daily consumption. Before applying Calcium solution into the water, it is recommended to run a water test to check current water parameters. 100 ml of Calcium solution raises the calcium level in 100 l of water by 17.5 mg/l (ppm). The product is also suitable for casual use in order to raise calcium level once. 10 g of Calcium in 100 l of water raises the calcium level by about 35 mg/l (ppm). We do not recommend raising calcium levels by more than 20 ppm per day. In order to maintain ionic balance, KH Buffer and Reef Mineral Salt should also be used. Calcium and Magnesium can be combined together into one solution. Contains: calcium chloride – CaCl2 (CAS: 10043-52-4). Causes serious eye irritation. Keep out of reach of children. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Wear eye protection. IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/ attention. Dispose of contents/container to appropriately labeled waste containers in accordance with national regulations.

The 2Hr Aquarist APT Pure (Water Conditioner)
The 360o water conditioner.Comprehensive and super-concentrated formula removes chlorine & chloramines and detoxifies heavy metals, ammonia, nitrites and nitrates.Contains soothing Aloe Vera extract.Dose 1ml per 60LDose up to 5X recommended dosage as an emergency tool to detoxify Ammonia. THE SIMPLE POWER OF WATER CHANGE THE 2HR WAY One of the most powerful ways to improve tank performance is also the simplest: Regular water change in a mindful way. It is practised in the largest world-class aquariums, and should be done even in a the smallest desktop tank.While a tank looks naturalistic, it is not naturally self-sustaining. Organic waste (much of which cannot be measured by hobbyist test kits) accumulates and much remains undigested by the tank's bio-filter. Embrace the power: Change Water the 2Hr Way today. The #1 algae trigger is decomposing organic matter. Remove all decaying leaves. Stem plants require replanting after pruning a few times. Unlike terrestrial hardwoods, older aquatic stems generally deteriorate over time. Remove and discard old stems and roots. Instead of simply draining water, use a pipette or turkey baster to gently stir up detritus on the surface of plants and substrate. Take care not to stir up deeper levels of the substrate. Vacuum the detritus away while draining away around 40% of the tank's water. Add a comprehensive 360 water conditioner directly into the tank and refill, taking care not to stir up the deeper levels of substrate. If you are keeping sensitive livestock, pre-mix the water conditioner in a separate container before adding the conditioned water into the aquarium. TAP WATER TODAY Industrial water chlorination dates back to the 1890s in Germany and the UK. Today most urban tap water contains between 0.2ppm and 2ppm of Chlorine and Chloramines ( a more stable form of Chlorine). This is high enough to kill water-borne diseases, but low enough for human consumption. However this level is sufficient to harm fish and destroy the beneficial bacteria in an aquarium. REGULAR WATER CHANGE It is worth the effort to change ~40% of the tank water regularly. At least monthly for a slow growing, fully planted tank with a light fish load. More frequently for tanks with higher bio loads. Regular water change helps keep algae at bay by removing organic waste that is not digested by microbial action (and not measurable by hobbyist test kits). When performed the 2Hr Way, it significantly reduces the prime algae triggers of detritus and decaying matter. It also helps to remove algae spores. READ MORE 5 THREATS Apart from Chlorine and Chloramine, tap water can have unexpected occurrences of Heavy Metals (e.g. copper from old piping) which is lethal to livestock. Tap water can also contain Ammonia. More often though, it is released within the tank: when we stir up decaying matter buried in the substrate, when there is livestock death or when the tank’s biological filtration system fails and there is a surge in waste matter. Sudden spikes in Ammonia and Nitrite (an oxidised form of Ammonia) can melt plants and kill livestock. 360 protection from Chlorine, Chloramines, Ammonia, Heavy Metals, Nitrites and Nitrates. 5X more concentrated than competing products. This translates to greater savings. Try it for 100 days. If it doesn’t work, get a full refund. We are aquarists too and want the best for you.
