Tropic Marin® All-For-Reef – Complete Calcium, Magnesium & Trace Elements
Simplify your reef care with the ultimate all-in-one solution. Tropic Marin® All-For-Reef is a highly concentrated, easy-to-use mineral blend designed to supply all essential minerals and trace elements required by stony corals, coralline algae, and other reef organisms.
Unlike traditional 2-part dosing systems, All-For-Reef provides Calcium, Magnesium, Strontium, and Alkalinity in a single bottle, ensuring zero ionic shift. This means you can maintain a stable reef environment without the gradual salinity increases associated with sodium chloride byproducts.
The Science of Single-Solution Dosing
Through coral growth and biological processes, minerals are rapidly consumed. All-For-Reef replenishes these in a balanced ratio:
Foundation Elements: Provides concentrated Calcium, Magnesium, and Strontium for the growth of calcium carbonate skeletons.
Full Spectrum Trace Elements: Includes Iodine, Bromine, and Fluorine for gorgonians and crustaceans; Selenium for free radical elimination; and Iron, Manganese, Zinc, and Molybdenum for vital enzyme complexes.
Ionic Stability: Creates the best care conditions with just one solution. There are no additional compounds (e.g., sodium chloride) that alter the salinity or ion balance.
Preparation & Dosage Guide
Powder Preparation:
800g Can: Makes 5 Liters of dosing solution.
1600g Can: Makes 10 Liters of dosing solution.
Mixing: Dissolve 6 level scoops (approx. 160g) of All-For-Reef Powder in 900ml of RO/DI water to result in 1 Liter of dosing solution.
Dosage Instructions:
Initial Adjustments: Before starting, adjust your Calcium, Alkalinity, and Magnesium to your desired values using a standard Balling method or Bio-Magnesium.
Starting Dose: Begin with a daily dose of 5 ml per 100 L (26 US gal) of system volume.
Weekly Adjustment: Increase the daily dose by 2.5 ml per week until your Alkalinity and Calcium concentrations remain constant.
Monitoring: Once stable, monitor Calcium or Alkalinity periodically. We recommend using Calcium as your primary gauge, as test kits are often more sensitive to changes in this parameter when using All-For-Reef.
Maximum Dosage: We recommend not exceeding a daily dose of 25 ml per 100 L (26 US gal).

FAQ: Professional Reefing Tips
Why use the powder version? The powder is more cost-effective for larger tanks and allows you to mix fresh, ultra-pure solutions as needed.
Can it replace my 2-part system? Yes! For many reefers, this completely replaces the need for Calcium, Alkalinity, and Trace Element bottles.
What if my parameters become unbalanced? In some cases, corals consume elements in different ratios. If your Calcium and Alkalinity drift apart, use a single-element supplement to bring them back into balance before resuming All-For-Reef.
