Tropic Marin - All-For-Reef - Complete Calcium, Magnesium & Trace Elements

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:

  1. Initial Adjustments: Before starting, adjust your Calcium, Alkalinity, and Magnesium to your desired values using a standard Balling method or Bio-Magnesium.

  2. Starting Dose: Begin with a daily dose of 5 ml per 100 L (26 US gal) of system volume.

  3. Weekly Adjustment: Increase the daily dose by 2.5 ml per week until your Alkalinity and Calcium concentrations remain constant.

  4. 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.


Other product recommendation:

For further colour intensification of the corals, improved polyp appearance and growth, we recommend Tropic Marin® Reef Actif.
