CONTINUUM Reef Basis Calcium 500ML

Product details

CONTINUUM Reef Basis Calcium 500ML is a marine aquarium additive used to help maintain calcium levels in reef tanks. Balanced calcium supports normal calcification for corals and many other invertebrates, while low or excessively high calcium can contribute to slowed growth or reduced buffering stability. This product is intended for hobbyists who measure calcium (and typically alkalinity and magnesium) and adjust dosing to keep parameters within a recommended range.

Features:

• Helps correct and maintain calcium concentrations for reef aquariums
• Supports stable aragonite formation when used alongside appropriate chemistry balance
• Suggested target range for calcium is 410–450 mg/L (ppm), adjusted based on test results
• Works best as part of regular calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium monitoring
• Avoid adding calcium and alkalinity (buffering) products at the same time to reduce precipitation and potential cloudiness
• Shake well prior to dosing for consistent mixing

Specifications:

• Product size: 500 mL
• Dose (per addition): 1 capful (5 mL) per 50 US gallons (200 L)
• Dosing frequency: 3 to 4 times per week

• Recommended practice: Measure calcium and add as required to maintain target levels
