| Q:
How concentrated is Reef Advantage? What is
the advantage?
A: Reef Advantageis a concentrated calcium
supplement capable of raising 20 gallons of water by 25
ppm of calcium with only 1 teaspoon. The biggest advantage
is the ability to know exactly how much product to add in
order to achieve any calcium level while restoring other
essential ions. As an added bonus it mixes to a pH of 8.3
to 8.6 so you can forget about the pH battles associated
with other calcium supplements. Additionally, it also contains
strontium and magnesium ratios proportional to typical depletion
rates. If Reef Advantageis used to maintain
calcium, then other strontium and magnesium supplements
are not necessary.
Q:
I am using Reef Builder and Reef Advantage Calcium. I have
Reef Calcium but I do not use it regularly. Why do I need
Reef Calcium if I am using Reef Advantage Calcium? Are they
the same?
A: Our Reef Advantage Calcium and Reef Calcium are completely
different calcium supplements. Reef Advantage Calcium is
an ionic calcium that is very concentrated and very economical
to use. Reef Calcium is an organic calcium complex that
is very readily available. The calcium in this product is
bound to an easily metabolized carbohydrate, hence it being
very available and your corals do not have to expend as
much energy to use this form of calcium. In using these
products together, I would consider Reef Advantage Calcium
your primary calcium supplement and Reef Calcium as your
secondary calcium supplement.
