Reef
Complete™ is a concentrated (160,000 mg/L) optimized
blend of ionic calcium designed to restore and maintain
calcium to levels found in natural seawater without
affecting pH. Calcium and carbonates are essential to
all coral growth. If either becomes deficient, coral
growth will cease, followed by a rapid decline in coral
health. To prevent this you must provide calcium (Reef
Complete™) and carbonates (Reef Builder™
or Reef Carbonate™).
Reef Complete™ also includes magnesium and strontium
in amounts proportionate to typical utilization ratios
(100:5:0.1, Ca:Mg:Sr). This allows one to maintain these
two important elements while maintaining calcium.

DIRECTIONS:BEGINNER:
Use 1 capful (5 mL) per 80 L (20 gallons*) twice
a week. Check calcium every 2 weeks and adjust
amount or frequency accordingly. ADVANCED: Check
calcium level, then follow dosing regimen above
until calcium is adjusted to 380–420 mg/L.
Each capful will raise calcium by about 10 mg/L.
Size or frequency of amount added can be adjusted,
but do not exceed 25 mg/L per day. Thereafter,
use as required to maintain calcium. EXPERT:
After determining the calcium consumption rate,
set up a continuous drip system. Use the following
formula to determine how much to add to your
top-off water: m=0.025vc (m=mL of product to
add to top off water, v=volume of tank in gallons*,
c=amount to raise calcium in mg/L). For example,
if you want to raise calcium by 20 mg/L in a
50 gallon* tank, then you would add 0.025x50x20=25 mL
into the top-off water. HINTS: If used with
Reef Calcium™, it is not necessary to
exceed 380 mg/L total calcium. Calcium over
400 mg/L is not recommended. Use Reef Status™:
Calcium to measure calcium.
DO NOT OVERDOSE: Excess calcium may enhance
the loss of carbonate alkalinity. Do not directly
mix with any carbonate supplement. Best if calcium
& carbonate additives are added on alternate
days or at least 30 minutes apart.
