Red Sea’s Coral Pro Salts contain biologically balanced, elevated levels of the foundation elements (Calcium, Magnesium Carbonates) necessary for sustainable, accelerated coral growth.
Coral Pro Salt is ideal for reef aquariums, in particular LPS and SPS corals, and for growing coral frags.
Aquarium Type | Salinity | Alkalinity (dKH) | Ca (mg/l) | Mg(mg/l) | K(mg/l) | Dose |
Mixed Reef | 34 ppt | 11-12 | 435 465 | 1310 1390 | 375 405 | 37.1 g/l |

Red Seas Coral Pro Salt foundation elements Formula
Red Seas Coral Pro Salt contains biologically balanced, elevated levels of thefoundation elements(Calcium, Magnesium, Carbonates) necessary for sustainable, accelerated coral growth. Coral Pro Salt is ideal for reef aquariums, in particular for LPS and SPS corals, and for growing coral frags.
Natural seawater includes over 70 chemical elements and although most of the elements influence the water parameters, a few of them have a more significant role in its overall chemical stability.
These elements form the foundation of the reef environment and they include the three major elements:calcium, magnesium and bi-carbonates. These three foundation elements have a major effect on thewater chemistry (pH stability, alkalinity, seawater ionic strength) and on many of the corals biologicalprocesses (skeleton formation, ion- exchange, photosynthesis).
Unlike the natural reef environment, where there is an immense reservoir of the foundation elements, the reef aquarium has limited resources that are quickly depleted by the aquarium inhabitants. Therefore, in order to enable sustainable coral growth it is necessary to maintain higher than natural levels of the foundation elements.
Original research carried out in Red Seas laboratory has shown that in a closed system (an aquarium)a specific ratio between the foundation elements of calcium, magnesium and carbonates (alkalinity) isnecessary for coral vitality and the formation of a robust aragonite coral skeleton. This ratio must be maintained especially when increasing the levels of the foundation elements above the natural sea levels.
