Seachem Laboratories Reef Strontium Supplement

Reef Strontium is intended to restore and maintain strontium to levels found in natural seawater without affecting pH. Strontium is utilized in the same manner as calcium and holds a similar importance in maintaining a vigorous level of growth. Reef Strontium contains 10,000 mg/L of available strontium as a gluconate complex. Gluconate complexation confers several benefits: it increases the bioavailability of the strontium, it provides a rich source of metabolic energy to help maintain peak coral growth, and it inhibits strontium precipitation/alkalinity depletion. Gluconate contains no nitrogen or phosphorous, thus it is biologically impossible for it to lead to algae growth in a properly maintained reef system.
Benefits: 1. Restores and maintains strontium to levels found in natural seawater.2. Provides a rich source of metabolic energy to help maintain peak coral growth.3. Inhibits strontium precipitation/alkalinity depletion. , Does Not Contain: Nitrogen, Phosphorous , pH Balance: 7.5 - 8.5 pH pH
Safety: Caution: Contains 1,5-pentanedial. May produce an allergic reaction.
Use Instructions: Beginner: Use 1 capful (5 mL) per 80 L (20 US gallons) twice a week.Advanced: Check strontium level (use Reef Status Strontium to test strontium levels), then follow addition regimen above until strontium is adjusted to 8–12 mg/L. Each 5 mL/80 L will raise strontium by about 0.6 mg/L. Quantity or frequency can be adjusted as required to maintain strontium.Expert: After determining the strontium consumption rate, set up a continuous drip system. Use the following formula (or skip the math and use our Dosage Calculator) to determine how much to add to your top-off water: m=0.1vs (m=mL of product to add to top off water, v=volume of tank in liters, s=amount to raise strontium in mg/L). For example, if you want to raise strontium by 2 mg/L in a 200 liter tank, then you would add 0.1x200x2=40 mL into the top-off water. [For reference: 1 gallon=3.8 L]."
