SpongExcel 125ml Silica Solution – Brightwell Aquatics is an ionic silica supplement designed for use in marine aquariums where silica availability matters. It’s formulated to enhance the performance of organisms that can benefit from dissolved/ionic silica—especially sponges and some gastropods. In practical terms, it can be used to support tanks that may be silica-limited, helping provide more of the resource needed for these animals’ natural processes and feeding ecology.
Features:
- Ionic silica supplementation intended to support sponges and gastropods in marine systems
- Helps raise ionic silica levels in the aquarium water when dosed appropriately
- Useful for silica-limited setups where dissolved silica may constrain natural uptake by sponge-bearing systems
- May support sponge growth rates in reef-style marine setups where spongivorous fishes are kept, increasing access to natural sponge-based food sources
Specifications:
- Product size: 125 ml
- Dosing guidance: 1 drop per gallon of water
- Effect of dosing (approx.): Increases ionic silica concentration by ~0.20 ppm
- Intended use: Silica supplementation for sponges and gastropods
