Our Coral Essentials, Coral Power Amino is a concentrated blend of essential amino acids for marine aquariums.  It is essential for enzyme production, tissue growth and skeleton formation.  Corals also require amino acids to build protein for tissue growth and also for synthesis of the organic matrix which regulates and accelerates calcium carbonate deposition in the skeleton otherwise known as calcification (Allemand et al. 2004).  This organic matrix is a framework of proteins and other compounds that are essential to bio-mineralisation.  To ensure growth enhancement of SPS corals, maintain a dosing plan as detailed below.  Variances above and below the recommended dosing can be made depending on your own tank conditions and density of coral present.  Increased levels of Amino Acids can be readily utilised by coral.  We do not recommend dosing at high levels if there are elevated phosphate and nitrate levels in your aquarium.  The application of high doses of Coral Power Amino to aquariums with elevated phosphate and nitrate levels can result in algae outbreaks.

Available in 100ml and 50ml.

Dosage rate: We recommend starting off dosing 1 drop/day for each 100L of tank water and if results are good  increase steadily to 2 drops/day over a period of a month or so depending on your tank coral density and you must have very low nutrient levels.  We do not recommend to dose higher than 3 drops/day in a heavily stocked system for each 100L of water refer,   Manual Dosing Tables.

Marine aquarists have known for many years the essential requirement to have a rigorous supplementation program. It provides your marine aquarium corals the minerals and vitamin supplements they need for healthy and strong growth, great colouration and vitality. There are many solutions on the market based on, Randy's Mix, 2 Part, 3 Part, The Balling Method and all the variations.

At Sustainable Reefs our Coral Essentials Method is based on the techniques we've adopted from thorough experimentation and extensive experience growing coral in marine aquarium environments, from small aquariums to large scale commercial aquaculture facilities. This experience, and the knowledge gained from many hours experimenting and trying a multitude of different supplement regiments, has resulted in fine tuning the products we believe are the best for a closed system marine environment. Results speak for themselves and we have been producing the best commercially aquacultured SPS coral in Australia and around the world.

While many manufacturers of marine aquarium supplements have tried to make things simple by premixing the various Calcium, Carbonate and Magnesium solutions with certain trace elements mixes we believe it is better to have full control over these essential additional elements. We have kept it simple for newcomers, and also allowed total control for the experienced aquarists, with a concise range of products to ensure your marine aquarium is the best it can possibly be.
