Seachem Reef Kalkwasser

Introduction

Seachem Reef Kalkwasser is a highly concentrated lime (calcium hydroxide) solution designed to raise and maintain calcium and alkalinity in marine and reef aquariums. This product is ideal for maintaining stable water chemistry in SPS and LPS coral tanks. Kalkwasser supports healthy coral skeleton growth, stabilizes pH, and helps maintain optimal carbonate hardness (KH), making it an essential tool for reef aquarists seeking precision in calcium dosing.

Features

• Raises Calcium and Alkalinity: Supplies essential calcium while maintaining carbonate hardness.

• Stabilizes pH: Helps buffer pH in reef aquariums for a stable environment.

• Supports Coral Growth: Encourages strong skeletal development in SPS and LPS corals.

• High Purity: Free from contaminants, ensuring safe use in delicate reef systems.

• Economical and Efficient: Highly concentrated formula requires small amounts for effective dosing.

Usage

Preparing Kalkwasser Solution:

1. Dissolve 1 teaspoon (approx. 5 g) of Kalkwasser in 1 liter of RO/DI water to create a saturated solution.

2. Stir thoroughly until fully dissolved.

Application:

• Dose gradually into the aquarium, ideally using a drip system to prevent sudden changes in pH or calcium levels.

• Monitor calcium, alkalinity, and pH levels regularly to ensure optimal water chemistry.

• Suitable for ongoing maintenance, top-offs, or dosing during water changes.

Available Sizes

• 250G 

• 500G 

• 1KG 

• 2 KG
• 12 KG

Recommendations

• Regular Testing: Test calcium, alkalinity, and pH frequently to ensure consistent dosing.

• Automated Dosing: For larger tanks, use a drip system to maintain stable calcium and alkalinity levels.

• Ideal for SPS and LPS Corals: Supports the skeletal growth of demanding coral species.

• Use with Other Seachem Products: Combine with Seachem Reef Builder or Marine Buffer for balanced water chemistry.
