Red Sea Salt Red Sea salt is a premium sea salt that has become famous for its favourable effect on invertebrates. It is used extensively be large public display aquariums around the world because of its consistently excellent performance. The appearance of your aquarium after a water change with Red Sea Salt is the best proof of the quality of product. Red Sea Salt is unique among all salts because of its completely natural properties. Recently there has been a steady move from the “artificial”, over-refined and chemically enhanced products, to “natural” products, derived “straight from nature” with as little technological interference as possible. Red Sea Salt is produced from Red Sea and is the most natural artificial sea salt on the market, with at least 87% of the raw materials being reclaimed from natural water sources using solar evaporation techniques. The salt used to produce the Red Sea Salt already contains trace elements in the same ratio found in natural seawater. Tests in a laboratory have shown a significant difference in coral growth when using “natural” as opposed to so-called “chemically pure” salt in the Red Sea Salt formula. Specially Characteristics of Red Sea Salt: A single, chemically balanced formula to support the most delicate marine lifeSuitable for marine fish and invertebrates from every sea and oceanReaches a stable, natural pH shortly after mixingNo nitrates or phosphatesProduced by a batch process to ensure homogeneity of salt mixtureEvery batch biologically and chemically tested for quality controlSuitable for a small water change or a complete new aquarium set-upCan be mixed to any desired salinityAvailable in a wide range of individual pack sizes. Technical Information: 1kg dissolved in 30 litres of Reverse Osmosis (R.O.) water at 25 C will produced a seawater solution as follows: Specific gravity 1.021pH 8.4 (after 2 hours mixing or aerating)Alkalinity 2.2 – 2.5 milli-equivalent / litre The calcium content of Coral Reef Sea Salt has been formulated such that after dissolving in normal tap water it will produce a solution that contains 380 – 425 ppm of calcium (dependent on the level of calcium present in the tap water), without precipitation and the consequent loss of trace elements.
