Red sea coral colors pro test kit5/4/2023 so lets simplifyįirst we should find are base level of calcium this is basically were the calcium lvl in tank remains at untreated lets say in this example its 400ppm and we dose are tanks to be 650ppm if we wait 3 days and test again and the level is 500ppm and then test again in another 3 days and its 350 we now know that weekly the tank consumes approx 250 ppm of calcium a week and approximately 45 ppm daily. ECT but as stated way to,complicated to figure out exactly. So regarding calcium consumption and how to figure this out, there are a lot of factors regarding calcium consumption,in the tank coral, evaporation, temperature. I find,this useful to tell when your over dosing but also it gives you the knowledge to tell when,the chemistry in the tank is off at a glance and be able,to pin point what is offĬlick to expand.Yes correct the book does talk about doseing based on calcium consumption how ever that is just one methode the book lists there are others. So far I have seen some change in the coral such as brightening of the colors and over all healthier looking appearance.Īlso I wish I had the booklet for this because there are a couple of pages that explain the symptoms your tank will experience when different elemental levels are to high. So I dose 1 ML per every 25 gallons to raise the level 1ppm. No unfortunately I can't find the booklet I had connected to the kit but after testing the primary elements I dose only what is needed for example if mag is low I dose B and so on. Now I am not sure if I am doseing correctly but this is what I do.įirst the colors pro doseing,kit a b c d each have a primary foundation element that coralates with each supplement Magnesium, Potassium, Iodine, iorn with calcium connecting all of them. To start i do use the red sea colors complete test kit and have started testing regularly now that I am keeping more sensitive coral, as well I do dose calcium regularly. I know this forum is a Little old but I was just looking for info on,this very topic because damn the instructions on this are confusing as hell.
