Fauna Marin Amin is a high-purity, liquid amino acid supplement specifically formulated for the complex nutritional needs of marine corals and filter feeders. Amino acids are the fundamental building blocks of proteins and are essential for the production of coral tissue, pigments, and skeletal organic matrices. In a closed reef system, these vital compounds are quickly depleted through biological uptake and aggressive protein skimming. Amin provides a concentrated, balanced blend of all essential amino acids to promote rapid growth, intense coloration, and enhanced recovery of stressed coral colonies.
Amin acts as a biological "booster," providing corals with the energy-rich compounds they need to thrive, even in ultra-low nutrient environments.
Essential Building Blocks: Supplies the specific amino acids that corals cannot synthesize on their own, facilitating faster tissue expansion and skeletal development.
Vivid Coloration: Supports the production of fluorescent proteins and chromoproteins, resulting in deeper, more vibrant colors in both SPS and LPS corals.
Enhanced Recovery: Significantly speeds up the healing process of damaged coral tissue caused by fragging, pests, or environmental stress.
Boosts Feeding Response: The presence of pure amino acids in the water column triggers a natural feeding response, encouraging corals to extend their polyps for maximum nutrient capture.
Ultra-Pure Formulation: Contains no inorganic nitrogen or phosphorus, ensuring that you can feed your corals without fueling the growth of nuisance algae.
How do I dose Fauna Marin Amin? The standard dosage is 0.5 ml per 100 L (26 US gal) daily. For heavily stocked reef tanks, the dosage can be increased up to 1.0 ml per 100 L daily.
When is the best time to dose? Dosing during the "lights-on" phase or shortly before feeding other particulate foods is most effective, as this is when coral metabolic activity and polyp extension are typically at their peak.
Should I turn off my protein skimmer? It is not strictly necessary to turn off the skimmer, but doing so for 15–30 minutes after dosing can increase the "dwell time" of the amino acids in the water column, allowing for better absorption.
Can I use this in an Ultra-Low Nutrient System (ULNS)? Yes. In fact, amino acid supplementation is critical in ULNS environments where corals may otherwise suffer from "pale coral syndrome" due to a lack of available organic nitrogen.
Fauna Marin MinS: A liquid coral food and polyp activator that works synergistically with Amin for total coral nutrition.
