We detected elements in your water that can be harmful for your tank.
More information about each element is listed below.

To remedy this we recommend carrying out 6 x 15% water changes with Tropic Marin Pro salt or Red Sea Salt (blue bucket), spread over 6 weeks

P

Your Phosphorus / phosphate levels are too high.

Check for possible contamination source. To help you in your search for the source of error, we have listed the most common reasons (sorted in descending order of frequency):

1. Overfeeding, especially with dry food or not washed-frozen foods
2. No Phosphate Remover in the system
3. Too much vegetable food
4. Too little flow, "Gammel corners" in the aquarium
5. Weak filtration / skimming
6. use of supplements to increase nutrients

Renew or increase PO4 media, feed less, wash frozen food, avoid dried foods (flakes or pellets)

Mn

Your Manganese levels are too high.

Check for possible contamination source. To assist you in finding the source of error, we have listed the most common sources of iodine (sorted in descending order of frequency):

1. Trace element overdose / contamination
2. Contaminated salts

Li

Your Lithium levels are too high.

Check for possible contamination source. To help you in your search for the source of error, we have listed them the most common lithium sources (sorted in descending order of frequency):

1. Trace element overdose / contamination
2. Contaminated salts / contaminated magnesium salts
3. Artificial Rock/ Reef ceramics
4. Food

B

Your Boron levels are slightly low.

Please dose as recommended in the DOSE tab.

Very important for your aquarium

Ca

We have detected a lack of calcium.
A calcium dosage may have the following advantages for your aquarium:
- Calcium is essential for calcification
- Important for the development of healthy coral skeleton
- A lack of calcium can have very bad effects on the aquarium, please act quickly to restore.
To restore the natural value, they refer to our recommended dosage.

We recommend the corrective dosage be carried out over 2 days. For the first day the dosage should be 20.6116g. On the last day please use 2.69g.

If you have the 1000ml version please visit this link to re-calculate your dosage.

Mg

We have detected a lack of magnesium.
A magnesium dosage can have the following benefits for your aquarium:
- Essential for calcification
- Important for the development of healthy coral skeleton of SPS and LPS corals
To restore the natural value, please refer to our recommended dosage.

We recommend the corrective dosage of 73.43g for 1 day.

If you have the 1000ml version please visit this link to re-calculate your dosage.

Important for your aquarium

B

We have detected a lack of boron.
A boron dosage can have the following benefits for your aquarium:
- Stabilization of the pH value in the aquarium
- Can promote the colour and health of SPS and LPS
To restore the natural value, please refer to our recommended dosage.

We recommend the corrective dosage be carried out over 4 days. For the first 3 days the daily dosage should be 45.4ml. On the last day please use 34.19ml.

Fine-tuning Level 1 ( Basic )

Mo

We have detected a lack of molybdenum.
A molybdenum dose may have the following advantages for your aquarium:
- Can promote enzymatic processes in the reef aquarium
- Can promote the color of SPS and LPS
- Too high a dosage of molybdenum can be detrimental to the aquarium, please dose carefully.
To restore the natural value, please refer to our recommended dosage.

We recommend the corrective dosage be carried out over 2 days. For the first day the dosage should be 22.7ml. On the last day please use 9.11ml.

Show me the product to use

V

We have detected a lack of vanadium.
A vanadium dosage may have the following advantages for your aquarium:
- Can have a positive effect on the growth of sponges, sea squirts and SPS and LPS corals
- Can promote a better polyp extension
- May intensify the color of Acropora and Montipora
To restore the natural value, please note our dosing recommendation.
To keep this value, please note our maintenance dose. For calculating the maintenance dose proceed as follows:
1st Test: dose maintenance dose xml
2nd Test: old maintenance dosing xml (from the 1st test) + new maintenance dose meter (from the 2nd test) XML.
3. Test:: old maintenance dosing xml (from the 1st test) + old maintenance dosing xml (from the 2nd test) + new maintenance dose xml meter (from the 3rd Test).
4. Test: see above. Thereafter, the dosage should not be increased, even though the analysis indicates a value of 0.

We recommend the corrective dosage of 0.55ml for 1 day.

We recommend a daily maintenance dose of 0.04ml. If this dose is very low, then this can be alternatively be dosed weekly (daily dose x7).

Fine-tuning Level 1 ( Advanced )

Ni

Warning, dangerous element for the aquarium. Dosage for professional, experienced aquarists only!
A nickel dose may have the following advantages for your aquarium:
- Can improve the color image of coral
- Can improve the overall health of LPS and SPS corals
Attention, the concentration of nickel in natural seawater is so low that it can not be detected. If a dose is desired, begin with the recommended dosage listed below and test the value regularly in our laboratory. If nickel are detected, they have overdosed and should adjust the dose immediately. You can increase the dosage of nickel slowly until they see a positive effect.

We recommend the corrective dosage be carried out over 3 days. For the first 2 days the daily dosage should be 9.08ml. On the last day please use 4.56ml.
