When this mixture is added to the aquarium it will impart a slight haze that should clear within 15–30 minutes. HINTS: Do not use Equilibrium™ when replacing evaporated water.

All plants require a source of carbon. This is typically obtained from CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e, but, may also be derived from simple organic compounds (such as photosynthetic intermediates). The use of either CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e injection or Flourish Excel™ does not necessarily negate the use of the other. Because the processes of producing photosynthetic intermediates and building onto them occur simultaneously, one can derive a substantial benefit with the use of Flourish Excel™ either alone or in conjunction with CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e . The combination is particularly ideal for situations when continuing to add CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e could result in dangerously low pH levels. Flourish Excel™ also has iron reducing properties which promote the ferrous state of iron (Fe\u003csup\u003e+2\u003c\/sup\u003e), which is more easily utilized by plants than ferric iron (Fe\u003csup\u003e+3\u003c\/sup\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe reason plants need CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e is to produce longer chain carbon compounds also known as photosynthetic intermediates. Photosynthetic intermediates includes compounds such as ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate, and 2-carboxy-3-keto-D-arabinitol 1,5 bisphosphate. Although the names are complicated, the structures are quite simple (5 carbon chains). Flourish Excel™ does not contain these specific compounds per se, but one that is quite similar. By dosing with Flourish Excel™ you bypass the involvement of CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e and introduce the already finished, structurally similar compounds. It is in its structural similarity that Flourish Excel™ is able to be utilized in the carbon chain building process of photosynthesis.

This means that plants cannot divert iron from older leaves to new ones. Therefore, deficiency symptoms appear first on new or young leaves. Because plants use iron to produce chlorophyll, a lack of iron results in chlorosis, or yellowing, of the younger leaves. Stems may also appear short and slender. If the deficiency is severe and prolonged, each new leaf emerges lighter in color than the preceding leaf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen choosing an iron supplement, it is important to know the distinction between the two forms of iron. The iron will be in one of two oxidation states: ferrous having a +2 charge, or ferric having a +3 charge. Ferrous iron, the preferred iron form and is soluble in water at any pH. Ferric iron, however, is only soluble below a pH of around 5.5; but if the pH is higher than 5.5, which more than likely it will be in a planted aquarium, the ferric iron will become insoluble and precipitate, settling in the root zone. Once this occurs, foliar absorbtion becomes impossible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo overcome this precipitation, competing products employ a chelate of ferric iron: iron-EDTA. While this does keep it soluble, it has a couple of drawbacks with respect to foliar uptake of iron. (1) Iron-EDTA bonding is very strong, thus very little of the iron will be available to the plants over a given time frame and (2) Physiological energy must be expended by the plant in order to extract the ferric iron from EDTA-iron and then convert (reduce) it to the ferrous form. Our approach is different in that we use a complex (not chelate) of ferrous iron in Flourish Iron™.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlourish Iron™ is a highly concentrated (10,000 mg\/L) ferrous iron gluconate supplement. Plants are able to much more easily derive a benefit from Flourish Iron™ because ferrous iron gluconate is already in the ferrous form so they do not expend energy reducing it. Despite what other manufacturers may intimate, gluconate is not harmful to plants or fish. In fact, ferrous gluconate is better suited to foliar feeding than is iron-EDTA owing to the relatively weaker iron-gluconate bonding vs. iron-EDTA bonding.

Use Flourish Potassium™ to prevent potassium depletion (signs of which include yellowing in older leaves) and maintain the highest level of growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe most easily obtained sources of potassium are potassium nitrate and potassium phosphate. Both of these sources add to either nitrogen or phosphorus as well as potassium, making it virtually impossible to target a specific NPK ratio. Flourish Potassium™ is derived from potassium sulfate, allowing the user to adjust potassium levels without affecting nitrogen or phosphorus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list list-icons list-icons-style-3 list-icons\" style=\"color: #000000; font-family: \u0026amp;quot; helvetica neue\u0026amp;quot;,helvetica,arial,sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePotassium supplement for the planted aquarium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci class=\"fa fa-check\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHighly concentrated (50,000 mg\/L)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci class=\"fa fa-check\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDoes not contain phosphate or nitrate making it ideal for use with \u003ca title=\"Seachem Flourish Nitrogen\" href=\"https:\/\/bluefishaquarium.com\/products\/seachem-flourish-nitrogen?variant=17321464577\"\u003eFlourish Nitrogen\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca title=\"Seachem Flourish Phosphorus\" href=\"https:\/\/bluefishaquarium.com\/products\/seachem-flourish-phosphorus?_pos=5\u0026amp;_sid=d85b12d1c\u0026amp;_ss=r\"\u003eFlourish Phosphorus\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #2b00ff;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eSeachem\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #2b00ff;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTreats - Gallons\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #2b00ff;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBFA Item #\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlourish Potassium 250 mL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e50 for 4-6 months\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eSC04660\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlourish Potassium 500 mL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e100 for 4-6 months\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eSC04630\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlourish Potassium 2 L\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e400 for 4-6 months\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eSC04680\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"heading-primary\"\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"heading-primary\"\u003eDirections\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse 1 capful (5 mL) for every 125 L (30 US gallons).

It is formed as a spherical bead for optimum hydrodynamics, and will not pack. It permits maximum water flow and contact with its high density of macroporous binding sites. MatrixCarbon™ has a very low ash content as indicated by its minimal impact on pH. Even when added to distilled water, it does not raise pH above 7.0. While all carbons contain phosphate, regardless of false claims to the contrary, Matrix Carbon has the lowest detectable leachable phosphate content of all major carbon brands tested. MatrixCarbon™ outperforms other high grade carbons by at least two-fold when compared for total capacity to remove aquarium organic matter, rate of adsorption, and duration of use. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile carbon is generally considered to be a chemical filter, that is not precisely true. It is in fact a mechanical filter as well, but it is only capable of mechanically filtering objects of molecular size. It functions through extremely small cracks and crevices, called macropores and micropores. Microporous carbons remove primarily metals and smaller ions (like trace minerals) and are best suited to air filtration, while macroporous carbons remove primarily larger organic molecules (like nitrogenous waste) and are best suited to water filtration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ingredients from which a carbon is manufactured determine whether it will be macro- or microporous. Carbons made from coconut shell and other organic products form microporous carbons, while carbons made from bituminous coal form macroporous carbons. Matrix Carbon™ is a bituminous coal-based, macroporous carbon. It is the only spherical carbon on the market, allowing for maximum water flow. It is sized to allow full penetration by water, but not small enough to escape filter bags. All carbons contain phosphate. However, that phosphate DOES NOT come from washing the carbon with phosphoric acid. Most carbons are washed with sulfuric acid. The phosphate is contained in the ash from the carbon source. The main purpose of acid-washing is to remove ash. Because of MatrixCarbon’s™ hydrodynamic properties, more ash is washed from our carbon than any other. Therefore, it has the lowest leachable phosphate on the market.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable style=\"min-width: 50px;\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\n\u003ccol style=\"min-width: 25px;\"\u003e\n\u003ccol style=\"min-width: 25px;\"\u003e\n\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eSeachem\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eBFA Item #\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eMatrixCarbon 100 mL (Bagged)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eSC01050\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eMatrixCarbon 250 mL\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eSC01060\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eMatrixCarbon 500 mL\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eSC01030\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eMatrixCarbon 1 L\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eSC01070\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eMatrixCarbon 2 L\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"1\" rowspan=\"1\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eSC01080\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDirections\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e250 mL will easily treat 100 US gallons (\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style='font-size: 15px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: \"Helvetica Neue\", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;'\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e400 L \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e) for several months.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse in a filter bag.

No other products can compare to its ability to clear haziness and polish water to unparalleled clarity. Unlike other products on the market which are simple ion-exchange resins, Purigen® is specifically designed to be an organic scavenging resin. When ion-exchange resins are filled to capacity by metals and other contaminants, Purigen® has barely begun to reach its potential. Purigen® generally ignores simple elemental compounds, having an extreme affinity for nitrogenous organics. The primary source of nitrogenous compounds in an aquarium is waste. Fish, corals, even plants produce nitrogenous waste. Purigen® removes that waste faster and more completely than anything else on the market. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity\u003c\/strong\u003e: Purigen’s™ possesses enhanced capacity owing to its vast surface area.

As it adsorbs waste products, Purigen® will change color from a pale blonde to a dark brown, almost black. Once it is exhausted, it can be regenerated with a solution of bleach and water. The bleach will literally “burn off” the organics that have been removed from the tank. Watch out for products that claim to be regenerable with a brine solution. That is the regeneration procedure for ion-exchange purposes. A brine solution will not remove organics. While such resins have a limited capacity for organic adsorption, a brine regeneration process only replaces removed ionic compounds. It does not destroy large organic molecules that were removed, which is the primary function of organic adsorption resins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"heading-primary\"\u003eDirections\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRinse before use.

Use Marine Trace™ to restore the proper level of trace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTotal Alkalinity is a measurement of three main ions: carbonate, bicarbonate, and borate. In saltwater, bicarbonate drives the pH toward 7.8, carbonate drives pH toward 9.1, and borate toward 9.5 or more. Because of the chemistry of buffering systems, the closer you get the pH to the pK of a buffering system, the harder it is for the pH to shift. So, if you blend a buffer so that the combined product drives the pH toward 8.3, then the more you use, the more stable the pH becomes. That is the principle behind Marine Buffer™. It is a blended buffer that drives and holds your pH at 8.3 because of the blend. The catch to this seemingly simple solution is that most salt mixes contain substantial amounts of bicarbonate salts. This shifts the pK of the buffering system further towards 7.8, and a buffer that shoots for 8.3 will never quite get there. Thus, the pK of Marine Buffer is actually slightly higher than 8.3 in order to combat the influx of bicarbonate at every water change. Marine Buffer™ was the first buffer on the market which contained borate salts (which make a saltwater buffering system much more stable), and Marine Buffer™ remains the most effective pH buffer on the market for marine aquaria.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #2b00ff;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeachem\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #2b00ff;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBFA Item #\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMarine Buffer 250 g  (8.8 oz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eSC03460\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMarine Buffer 500 g (1.1 lb)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eSC03430\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"heading-primary\"\u003e \u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"heading-primary\"\u003eDirections\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdd 5 g (1 level teaspoon) for each 80 L (20 US gallons).

Prime® is the second most concentrated dechlorinator on the market after our own aquavitro alpha™. A single 100 mL bottle will treat 1000 US gallons of tap water.

It is very important to understand how those two functions work together. All dechlorinators operate through a chemical process known as reduction. In this process, toxic dissolved chlorine gas (Cl\u003cspan\u003e2\u003c\/span\u003e) is converted into non-toxic chloride ions (Cl-). The reduction process also breaks the bonds between chlorine and nitrogen atoms in the chloramine molecule (NH\u003cspan\u003e2\u003c\/span\u003eCl), freeing the chlorine atoms and replacing them with hydrogen (H) to create ammonia (NH\u003cspan\u003e3\u003c\/span\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTypically, dechlorinators stop there, leaving an aquarium full of toxic ammonia! Seachem takes the necessary next step by including an ammonia binder to detoxify the ammonia produced in the reduction process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBe very careful when purchasing water conditioners. If your municipality includes chloramines in the water supplies, a standard sodium thiosulfate dechlorinator is not enough. Prime® promotes the natural production and restoration of the slime coat rather than relying on artificial or non-native slime compounds.

StressGuard™ does not coat resins or clog filtration like competing “slime coat” type products can.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes StressGuard™ very successful at healing is the fact that it contains protein active colloids. This protein active colloidal agent actively seeks out any wounds, abrasions, or places where exposed proteins are and attaches to this area to help directly deliver the disinfectant in the product and start the healing process. This protein active colloid, because it binds to the exposed proteins, also acts like a liquid bandage to the abrasion. Some products are marketed to be squirted in the bag when a fish is purchased. Those products are generally acidic, with some brands being a very strong acid. Putting such a product in a small, enclosed container with a fish often does more harm than any intended good. StressGuard™ has a pH of 7.0. It will not affect the pH of an aquarium, even at large doses. There are no other products on the market that can compare to the effectiveness of StressGuard™.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #2b00ff;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeachem\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #2b00ff;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTreats in Gallon\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #2b00ff;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBFA Item #\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStressGuard 3.4 oz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e200 - 400\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eSC05250\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStressGuard 8.5 oz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e500 - 1000\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eSC05260\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStressGuard 16.9 oz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e1000 - 2000\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eSC05230\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"heading-primary\"\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"heading-primary\"\u003eDirections\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUse 1\/2–1 capful (2.5–5 mL) to every 40 L (10 US gallons) daily until signs of stress have abated or healing is complete.

These products' inherent instability makes them potentially dangerous to coral health.

The most frequent causes of magnesium deficiency are use of kalkwasser, frequent overdosing of a carbonate additive, or low levels in the salt mix itself. Kalkwasser, for instance, precipitates magnesium as magnesium hydroxide while excess carbonates precipitate it as magnesium carbonate. In both cases, this means that magnesium that was present in the water is now unavailable. Of the two, magnesium hydroxide and magnesium carbonate, the former is more problematic; it is extremely insoluble. Once magnesium has precipitated as magnesium hydroxide, it will never redissolve. Magnesium carbonate will redissolve; however, it does so slowly. So, while it will go back into solution, there will be a significant portion of time in which magnesium levels are depleted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReef Advantage Magnesium™ is a concentrated (80,000 ppm) optimized blend of magnesium, chloride, and sulfate salts designed to restore depleted levels of magnesium with minimal impact to the ionic ratios found in natural sea water.

Each 5 g\/80 L will raise magnesium by about 5 mg\/L. Amount or frequency can be adjusted, but do not exceed 25 g\/80 L per day. Thereafter, use as required to maintain magnesium. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEXPERT: After determining the magnesium depletion rate, set up a continuous drip system. Use the following formula to determine how much to add to your top-off water: g=vm\/80 (g=grams to add to top off water, v=volume of tank in liters, m=amount to raise magnesium in mg\/L). For example, if you want to raise magnesium by 10 mg\/L in a 200 liter tank, then you would add (200x10)\/80=25 g into the top-off water. [For reference: 1 gallon=3.8 liters, 5 g=1 teaspoon].
