Description
Tropic Marin® Original Balling Components are the three salts used in the Balling method to allow an independent dosage of calcium and carbonates adapted to each individual aquarium.
The three part method adds calcium chloride dihydrate (part A) and sodium carbonate/bicarbonate (part B), while the addition of sodium chloride free sea salt (part C) maintains the crucial ionic balance in the aquarium water. This balanced calcium dosage creates the best conditions for good growth of corals and coralline algae and avoids the inevitable decrease of important elements seen in two part methods.
Benefits:
- For the individual liquid supply of calcium and alkalinity to compensate possible imbalances in the aquarium.
- To use the Balling method all three components are necessary: Calcium chloride dihydrate (part A), sodium carbonate/bicarbonate (part B) and sodium chloride free sea salt (part C).
- All components are available separately in packs of 1 kg/2.2 lbs. or as set (3 x 1 kg).
- Each single salt component is simply dissolved in RO water.
- The separate solutions are very stable and can be stored indefinitely.
- Easy to apply – suitable both for manual dosing and for dosing pumps.
- Can also be used as part of the Tropic Marin® Bio-Actif System.
- Suitable for an aquarium stocked with soft corals, LPS and SPS.
The Tropic Marin® Original Components contains:
Part A: Calcium chloride dihydrate (20,000 ppm Ca)
Part B: Sodium carbonate/sodium bicarbonate (2,800 °dH/l)
Part C: Sodium chloride free sea salt (~ 3,350 ppm Mg; ~ 980 ppm K)
