Seachem Reef Pack Fundamentals is a comprehensive starter kit designed to provide the core chemical components required for a successful reef aquarium. This all-in-one pack combines three of Seachem’s most critical reef supplements: Reef Complete, Reef Carbonate, and Reef Plus. Together, they provide the necessary calcium, alkalinity, vitamins, and trace elements to support coral calcification, promote vibrant colors, and ensure long-term biological health.
This pack is engineered to take the guesswork out of reef maintenance by providing the "Big Three" pillars of reef chemistry in one convenient bundle.
Reef Complete (100 mL): A concentrated ionic calcium supplement (160,000 mg/L) that also includes magnesium and strontium to prevent precipitation and promote skeletal growth.
Reef Carbonate (100 mL): A concentrated blend of carbonate and bicarbonate salts that stabilizes pH and provides the inorganic carbon essential for coral calcification.
Reef Plus (100 mL): A full-spectrum supplement containing vitamins, amino acids, and trace elements (including iodine and molybdenum) to enhance coral vitality and tissue growth.
Synergistic Formula: Each product is designed to work in harmony, ensuring that as corals grow, they have access to all the raw materials needed for skeletal and soft tissue development.
Ideal for All Skill Levels: Perfectly sized for nano-reefs or as a trial pack for hobbyists looking to switch to the Seachem reef dosing regime.
Can I mix these three supplements in one container? No. You should never mix calcium (Reef Complete) and alkalinity (Reef Carbonate) together in the same dosing container as they will react and precipitate into solid calcium carbonate. Dose them separately into high-flow areas of the tank.
How often should I use the Reef Pack Fundamentals? Dosing frequency depends on your coral load. Generally, Reef Complete and Reef Carbonate are used twice a week (or as needed to maintain levels), while Reef Plus is used twice a week to replenish vitamins and trace elements.
Is this pack safe for all reef inhabitants? Yes. It is completely safe for all marine fish, corals, and invertebrates, including sensitive shrimp and clams.
Seachem Reef Advantage Magnesium: Essential for high-demand tanks where magnesium levels drop below 1200 mg/L, preventing calcium and alkalinity from falling out of solution.
Seachem MultiTest Marine pH & Alkalinity: The necessary high-precision kit for monitoring the parameters managed by the Reef Pack.
Seachem Prime: Use during water changes to ensure your source water is free of chlorine and chloramines before adding your supplements.
