Tropic Marin Phos-Feed is formulated to mimic the natural phosphate supply mechanisms observed in the wild coral reef environment. Unlike traditional phosphate supplements that can lead to continuously increased phosphate concentration in the water column, Phos-Feed provides phosphate in a targeted manner.
Tropic Marin Phos-Feed contains insoluble particulate phosphates to enhance numerous biological processes in the coral for stronger growth and more intense colors
The included halogen trace elements like iodide, fluoride and bromide, replace elements consumed by increased growth rate of coralline algae and corals
Inspired by the best natural biological principles, utilizes an innovative new transport mechanism for phosphates into the coral
Recent studies show that insoluble, particulate phosphates are much more effective for coral growth and care than dissolved forms
Tropic Marin Phos-Feed can be added at any time of the day or night. Since the application clouds the water somewhat and to take advantage of the corals' nocturnal polyp opening, Tropic Marin Phos-Feed should preferably be applied around the time the lights are turned off. The temporary turbidity that forms is normal. The water is particularly clear after the turbidity. Half fill a container with approximately 200ml of reverse osmosis water and add the calculated amount of Tropic Marin Phos-Feed. Mix powder and water well by stirring. Pour the suspension into the current of the aquarium and rinse the cup with aquarium water. Dosage: Start with a daily dosage of 1 ml Tropic Marin Phos-Feed per 200 l (50 US-gal) aquarium water. If after four weeks a phosphate concentration between 0.05 ppm and 0.15 ppm is not reached in the aquarium, double the dosage to 2 ml (larger measuring spoon) per 200 l (50 US-gal). We recommend not to exceed a maximum dosage of 4 ml per 200 l (50 US-gal).
