Overview

Running a calcium reactor is one of the most cost-effective ways to keep calcium, alkalinity and magnesium topped up in a reef tank, but the process of dissolving coral skeleton media doesn't replenish every trace element your corals actually use. Coral Essentials Calcium Reactor Part 1 is formulated specifically to fill that gap, supplying the trace elements a reactor alone typically under-delivers.

It's designed to be dosed alongside Calcium Reactor Part 2 in equal parts, together covering the fuller trace element profile corals need beyond what a reactor provides on its own.

Key features
  • Blend of fluoride, iodide, boron, bromide and molybdenum
  • Purpose-built to complement calcium reactor systems specifically, rather than being a general-purpose trace mix
  • Developed through analysis of real calcium reactor systems to identify commonly under-replenished elements
  • Dosed in equal parts alongside Calcium Reactor Part 2 for a complete trace element profile
Who it's for

Reef keepers running a calcium reactor who want to close the trace element gap that reactor media alone doesn't fully cover.

Setup & tips
  • Dose in equal measure alongside Calcium Reactor Part 2 for the intended balance
  • Introduce gradually and monitor coral response over the following weeks
  • Pair with periodic ICP testing to confirm trace elements are landing in a healthy range
  • Store away from direct light and heat to preserve potency between doses
