Red Sea Reef Foundations A (Ca/SR)

Red Sea Reef Foundations A (Ca/Sr) is a high-purity liquid supplement specifically formulated for reef aquariums. Its main purpose is to replenish calcium and strontium levels—two essential elements that form the structural foundation of hard coral skeletons and other calcifying marine organisms. This product is part of Red Sea’s Reef Foundation system, designed to create optimal conditions for coral growth, vibrant coloration, and overall reef health in controlled marine environments.

Calcium is a primary building block of aragonite, the crystalline form used by corals to construct their skeletons. Strontium, though present in smaller concentrations, plays a crucial role in strengthening coral structures and supporting key cellular functions. In active reef tanks, especially those stocked with fast-growing corals like SPS (Small Polyp Stony corals), both elements are rapidly consumed. Regular supplementation is therefore critical to prevent deficiencies that can compromise coral development and overall reef stability.

Red Sea Reef Foundations A (Ca/Sr) contains a precise blend of calcium and strontium salts in a balanced liquid solution, making it safe and effective for daily dosing. It is designed to be used in conjunction with the other components of the Reef Foundation system (Alkalinity and Magnesium) to ensure complete and balanced water chemistry. Its high purity makes it suitable for both manual dosing and automated dosing pumps, providing consistent and stable parameter control.

Consistent use of Red Sea Reef Foundations A (Ca/Sr) is essential to maintain ideal calcium and strontium levels, resulting in stronger skeletal growth, healthier corals, and more vibrant coloration. This supplement is a vital part of any responsible and effective reef maintenance program, especially in systems aiming to replicate the conditions of natural coral reef environments.
