Aquasonic Bio-Trace is an essential trace element supplement for marine aquariums. It contains a selection of trace elements found in natural seawater that are easily depleted within the confinements of a marine aquarium. Trace elements are essential for the health, growth and wellbeing of marine fish, corals and invertebrates. Use Aquasonic Bio-Trace weekly for best results.   Directions for Use: 1ml per 50L each week. Use no more than once a week and do not overdose. Treatment may begin when the aquarium is stocked but not before. Regular water changes must still be made. A water change of 25% or more per month is recommended. To calculate approximate aquarium capacity: Multiply the length x width x water level height (in cm) and divide by 1,000 for litres.

Essential for all marine life. Aquasonic Calcium-Sup is used to raise the calcium level of a reef system, quickly and safely. One treatment raises the level by approx. 50ppm. Natural seawater contains calcium levels of 380ppm but this level however may be depleted in closed circuit aquaria. Calcium levels of around 400 to 450ppm encourage the growth of hard corals and coralline algae. Molluscs, crustaceans and some marine plants will also benefit.   Directions for Use: 5ml per 20L raises the calcium by approx. 50ppm. Before re-treatment test levels with an Aquasonic Calcium Test Kit. Treatment may be applied in smaller doses over several weeks if required. It is recommended that a water change of 25% or more per month be made. To calculate approximate aquarium capacity: Multiply the length x width x water level height (in cm) and divide by 1,000 for litres.

Aquasonic Iodine-Sup is formulated for iodine deficiencies in reef systems. Iodine is essential for the wellbeing of zooxanthellae algae living symbiotically within soft corals and anemones. Certain other species of algae require iodine which is easily depleted by living organisms. Protein skimming may also deplete reserves.   Directions for Use: 1ml per 50ml each week. Do not overdose.More or less may be required according to stock load. Regular water changes must still be made as this is the best way of ensuring a correct balance of seawater constituents and a reduction of possible toxic build up. It is recommended that a water change of 25% or more per month be made.

Normal pH The pH of water in the ocean is around 8.1. This is also the recommended pH of a marine aquarium, with levels slightly above or below this value considered acceptable. This happens as a result of the carbonate hardness value of sea water, which is about 125ppm. However, certain events such as biological filtration of a marine aquarium, tend to reduce the carbonate hardness value and therefore lower the pH. Also certain influences, such as carbon dioxide, can affect the reading of pH value.   Biological Filtration The assimilation of waste by bacteria in the filter of a marine aquarium is an acidifying process and in time will reduce the carbonate hardness value of the water. As this occurs, the pH value will fall. Carbonate hardness levels can be maintained with Aquasonic Carbonate Hardness Generator Powder. At a pH of 8.1 the carbonate hardness value should be 125ppm. If the carbonate hardness value of a marine aquarium is correct, yet pH values are not, the influence of carbon dioxide should be considered.   The Effects of CO2 For pH to read correctly, carbon dioxide must be in equilibrium with the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is produced by fish, plants, corals and bacteria assimilating waste in the biological filter in the aquarium. Some trickle (mini-reef) filters can expel carbon dioxide so efficiently that the quantity of carbon dioxide is less than the atmosphere, so pH reads higher than it really is. Likewise, in an aquarium with substrate filtration, carbon dioxide has some difficulty escaping as it is produced by the biological filter and other life. Under these conditions, carbonic acid may be formed and pH will read lower.   Using pH to Advantage During the development of bacteria in a biological filter, ammonia and nitrate conditions ensure. Both are deadly to marine fish. The toxicity of ammonia and nitrite, however, is in direct relation to the pH value of the water in the system. By lowering the pH, the toxicity of these deadly conditions is minimised. To lessen the toxicity of nitrite, lower the pH to 7.5.
