Coral Essentials Coral Power Trace A – 50ml is a blend of strontium (50,000 ppm) and barium
Coral Power Trace-A is a unique blend that includes strontium at a concentration of 50,000 ppm and barium. In natural seawater, the strontium level typically ranges from 8 to 10 ppm. It is advisable to maintain strontium levels within the range of 5 to 15 ppm.
There is anecdotal evidence suggesting that having strontium levels below 5 ppm in your marine aquarium can negatively impact coral growth. For those who are more experienced in aquaristics, it is important to regularly check the strontium levels in your marine tanks to understand how much your system is utilizing.
To effectively manage strontium usage, you should:
- Test the strontium levels regularly.
- Calculate your dosing requirements based on the depletion rate.
- Continue to monitor the strontium levels every week or two.
By following these steps, you can help ensure a healthy environment for your corals to thrive.
