Product Description
The pharmaceutical grade sea salt especially for modern reef aquaria
Tropic Marin PRO-REEF Sea Salt has been designed to meet the special requirements of reef aquariums with optimized concentrations of calcium and magnesium, which promote the growth of corals. The lower buffering and the correct pH value serve to stabilize the natural water values, and particularly, the hardness of carbonates, even with the use of calcium reactors. Natural and stable conditions for delicate marine life are achieved only by accurately balancing all influencing factors.
Tropic Marin PRO-REEF is thus the ideal foundation for the care and growth of fish, corals and other aquatic invertebrates in modern reef aquariums. Use seawater prepared with Tropic Marin PRO-REEF for regular water changes in your seawater aquarium, to start a new aquarium and to re-equilibrate the pH of a tank.
Benefits:
Optimizes calcium- and magnesium concentrations as well as alkalinity and pH.
Designed to meet the special requirements of modern reef aquaria with higher calcium requirements.
Especially designed for use with calcium reactors or mineral additives.
To maintain the alkalinity in a 7-8° dKH range.
Manufactured from pure, pharmaceutical grade salts.
Contains all major- and minor elements in the exact proportions found in tropical sea water.
The 70 trace elements are completely soluble due to the use of the mixed-crystal method.
Compliance with the most stringent quality control measures for the production of pharmaceuticals ensures nature-identical seawater.
Free from nitrates, phosphates and other unwanted chemicals.
How to use:
To achieve a salinity level of 32-35 ‰ (psu), dissolve 35 ml of Tropic Marin® PRO-REEF per liter or approximately ½ cup of Tropic Marin® PRO-REEF per US gallon water. Dissolve almost all of the salt in a clean container already filled with the full volume of RO/DI water at a temperature of 73-77°F / 23-25°C while circulating/stirring the water. Do not concentrate the mixture by adding the full amount of salt to a smaller amount of water.
Note: Always add the salt to the water, never the water to the salt. Making a concentrated mixture will cause a calcium carbonate precipitate to form.
When you have added ALMOST all of the salt and the mixture is fully dissolved and clear, start measuring the specific gravity with a hydrometer or similar instrument. Keep adding small amounts of salt until the specific gravity is the value you desire. The specific gravity of the sea salt solution should range from 1.025 to 1.027 (at 73-77°F / 23-25°C) and the pH-value should be in the range of 8.0 – 8.4. If all parameters are correct, the salt water is ready to use.
After setting up a new aquarium it takes a few weeks of water being circulated and correct lighting conditions to achieve the biologically stable environment required for the care and breeding of delicate marine organisms.
A weekly, partial water change, replacing 10 % of the total water volume with Tropic Marin® PRO-REEF, will help to maintain the water quality that your livestock needs for good health.
Parameters: approx. 7° KH, calcium approx. 440 ppm, magnesium approx. 1350 ppm
Application: For reef tanks with higher calcium requirements. To maintain the alkalinity in a 7-8° dKH range; particularly suitable when using a calcium reactor.
Use the new dosing calculator for an easy determination of the required amount of salt for your aquarium.

Product Description
Synthetic marine salt for aquariums with fish and less delicate corals and invertebrates. When setting up new aquariums it is recommended that the first animals are placed no sooner than 10-14 days after filling the aquarium. After dissolving the salt, freshly prepared marine water can be user immediately.
Instructions for use:Dissolve the salt in previously prepared demineralised water. Water temperature should be about 24°C (75°F). For salinity of 30 ppt dissolve about 3.25 kg (7.16 lbs) of salt in 100 litres (27 US gal) of water. Stir the solution vigorously for about 15 min. When the salt is fully dissolved and the solution clear the saline water is ready to use. Keep the salt in a dry and dark place. Once Dissolved, use the salt within 5 days. Keep out of reach of children! Product for aquarium use only! Reef Salt is not suitable for human consumption! Safety data sheet available on request.

Aquaforest products are manufactured in the EU under strict laboratory supervision to meet the highest quality standards. Each product is prepared from carefully selected raw components in quantities proven to yield consistent compositi on.
How is our Marine Salt product range tested?We mix our Marine Salt in 1 metric tonne (2204lb) batches, and 3 separate samples per batch are collected during the production stage for testi ng. Each of these samples is dissolved in 15 litres (4US gal) of RO water. Our experienced team of professionals perform ICP-OES analysis to verify that the chemical compositi on is within consistent range, and to rule out the presence of unwanted contaminants at the same ti me. Note: Even though our salt is thoroughly mixed, not every bucket/box will be identi cal. The parameters can vary slightly between containers and around a 2-3% variation is acceptable. This fl uctuati on is a result of both physical properties of the mix and the limitati ons of the processing techniques available. These variations are still smaller than the typical margin for error for popular hobbyist test kits.

Product Description
The Biotope African Cichlid Conditioning Salts are a premium mineral-based GH (General Hardness) water conditioner specifically formulated for African Rift Lake Cichlids from lakes such as Malawi, Tanganyika, and Victoria. Designed to replicate the mineral-rich conditions of their natural habitats, these conditioning salts help promote healthy growth, vibrant colouration, strong breeding behaviour, and overall fish wellbeing.
Formulated with essential minerals including calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, sulphates, chlorides, carbonates, and bicarbonates, the salts help maintain proper hardness levels while also supporting aquatic plants and beneficial nitrifying bacteria within the aquarium ecosystem. The phosphate-free formula helps maintain water quality without contributing to unwanted algae growth.
Made in Australia by Aquaforce Pty Ltd, Biotope African Cichlid Conditioning Salts are ideal for regular water changes, helping create stable water parameters that closely resemble African Rift Lake environments.
Directions
Use during water changes by treating only the newly added water. Do not add when replacing evaporated water.
5g (approximately 1 teaspoon) per 15 litres increases GH by approximately 12°
7.5g per 15 litres increases GH by approximately 18°
Suitable For
African Cichlids from Lake Malawi
African Cichlids from Lake Tanganyika
African Cichlids from Lake Victoria
Rift Lake aquarium systems
