Phosphate is one of the nutrients with high consumption and often low availability in both reef aquariums and uncontaminated natural coral reefs. Phosphate is essential for numerous growth processes in the coral skeleton and tissue.
In the natural coral reef environment, insoluble, particulate waste from fish and plankton provides corals with phosphate, which is essential for metabolism and growth. These particles can be easily filtered from the water and utilized by the corals. Tropic Marin® has applied this knowledge to a novel product, Tropic Marin® Phos-Feed , for the continuous phosphate supply in reef aquariums.
Tropic Marin® Phos-Feed is modeled on the natural phosphate supply mechanisms found in coral reefs. For the first time, phosphate is dosed precisely in your reef aquarium without constantly increasing the phosphate concentration in the water column. This stimulates coral growth, allowing corals to display natural patterns of skeletal development and vibrant colors, just like in an intact coral reef under natural conditions. Insoluble phosphate particles are the most effective way to supply corals with this important nutrient .
Targeted application, optimal dosage control, and optimal efficacy through the use of insoluble particulate ingredients. Inspired by the best natural biological principles.
Advantages
-
Inspired by the best natural biological principles, uses an innovative new transport mechanism for phosphates into the coral.
-
Tropic Marin® Phos-Feed contains insoluble phosphate particles that promote numerous biological processes in the coral, thus ensuring stronger growth and more intense colors.
-
The contained halogen trace elements, such as iodide, fluoride and bromide, replace elements that are consumed by the increased growth rate of corals and calcareous algae.
-
Recent studies show that insoluble, particulate phosphates are significantly more effective for the growth and maintenance of corals than dissolved forms.
-
Tropic Marin® Phos-Feed and Tropic Marin® Phos-Start are the first products that supply corals with phosphate in particle form in a targeted and metered manner.
