Aragonite Enhancers™
Once your environment has been chosen in Step (1) Environmental Salts™ and your Calcium is no longer being bound by phosphate from using our Phosphate Remover, it is time to maintain Calcium, Alkalinity and Magnesium using our Step (3) Aragonite Enhancers™.
Dosing is simple as Strontium, Barium, Sulfur & trace aragonite elements will be absorbed relative to the uptake ratio.
Algae nutrients include ammonia/ammonium, nitrate, phosphate as well as decaying organic material.
Removing them are easy, simply add the following products based on nutrient levels within your aquarium.
Aragonite A™
Calcium | Strontium | Barium
Quantum® Aragonite A™ is designed to provide ionic & complexed calcium as well as other key elements such as strontium and barium to help build strong aragonite. When aragonite elements are low in concentration corals may develop brittle calcite, which leads to lower bone density. This product must be used alongside our Quantum® Aragonite B™ & Quantum® Aragonite C™ supplements as together they will provide the required major, minor and trace aragonite elements. If wanting to enhance coral tissue color & growth, we recommend our Bioactive Color Intensifiers™. Recommended calcium concentration = 405-440ppm.
Aragonite B™
Carbonate | Hydrogen Carbonate | Buffer
Quantum® Aragonite B™ is designed to provide carbonate, hydrogen carbonate & buffers to help stabilize pH and build strong aragonite. Carbonates help to stabilize pH within saltwater aquariums due to their buffering capacity. This product must be used alongside our Quantum® Aragonite A™ & Quantum® Aragonite C™ supplements as together they will provide the required major, minor and trace aragonite elements. If wanting to enhance coral tissue color & growth, we recommend our Bioactive Color Intensifiers™. Recommended alkalinity concentration = 7.4-10.5dKH (132-188ppm).
Aragonite C™
Magnesium | Sulphate | Trace
Quantum® Aragonite C™ is designed to provide ionic & complexed magnesium as well as other key aragonite constituents such as sulphate and trace elements. When magnesium is low, KH fluctuations can occur more frequently which may cause stress to your aquarium. This product must be used alongside our Quantum® Aragonite A™ &Quantum® Aragonite B™ supplements as together they will provide the required major, minor and trace aragonite elements. If wanting to enhance coral tissue color & growth, we recommend our Bioactive Color Intensifiers™. Recommended magnesium concentration = 1230-1310ppm.
