Description

Due to the high biological activity in intact coral reefs, high concentrations of biopolymeric substances are found there. When they come into contact with nutrient particles and colonize with specialized bacteria, they form particles with an elevated nutrient content that are visible even to the naked eye. These flaky to thread-like particles are known as reef snow.

Tropic Marin® Reef Snow contains such natural marine biopolymers. Combined with other food substances, they form nutrient-rich flakes similar to those found in natural Reef Snow, which are then fed to corals and other filter feeders. The concentration of a Tropic Marin® Reef Snow solution can be varied to individually adapt the flake size to the filter feeders in the tank.

Advantages

  • natural nutrient source for corals and other filter feeders

  • increases the filterability of particles for many corals and filter feeders

  • improves their nutrient utilization

  • reduces the nutrient load of the water

  • Flake size variable

  • larger particles are a healthy food with prebiotic effect for fish

  • ideal for binding vitamins and other enrichments to the feed
