16oz PurpleUp Coralline Algae Accelerator CaribSea

Product details

16oz PurpleUp Coralline Algae Accelerator CaribSea is a coralline algae accelerator designed for marine reef aquariums. It uses a dual approach: it helps raise and maintain dissolved calcium levels (via ionic calcium) and adds a calcium/trace mineral source to target live rock surfaces. In practice, it’s used to support the conditions coralline algae need to spread on rock and aquarium glass—so you can encourage desirable pink and purple coralline growth when they are already present. Purple Up does not contain coralline algae itself, so visible results depend on existing coralline life and stable reef parameters.

Features:

• Accelerates coralline algae growth using a dual method approach in marine aquariums
• Helps boost dissolved calcium levels while also adding Super Sea Calcium™ to target live rock surfaces
• Supplies iodine, an essential element used by coralline algae tissues
• Not a fertilizer, and it is not intended to promote nuisance algae
• When used in a high-flow area (such as the sump), it disperses quickly through the system
• For best results, control phosphate and nitrogenous waste, maintain natural seawater-like carbonate hardness, and keep pH in the normal seawater range

Specifications:

• Product size: 16 oz
• Active approach: Ionic calcium to raise dissolved calcium, plus Super Sea Calcium™ (10 micron aragonite powder derived from natural seawater)
• Suggested dosing: 5 ml (1 capful) per 50 gallons once daily
• Placement: Sump, near a powerhead outlet, or any high-flow area for rapid dispersal
• Expected effect: Temporary cloudiness may occur
• Calcium testing guidance: Wait at least 1 hour after using Purple Up to test calcium
• Calcium target range: Maintain calcium between 380 ppm and 420 ppm; do not exceed 420 ppm on a regular basis
