Triton Magnesium 1000g – Professional Grade Macro-Element Supplement

Triton Magnesium is a high-purity, pharmaceutical-grade magnesium supplement in powder form, designed for the precise correction of magnesium levels in marine aquariums. Magnesium is one of the most critical macro-elements in seawater, acting as a "buffer" that prevents the unintentional precipitation of calcium and carbonates. By maintaining magnesium at natural seawater levels, aquarists can ensure high alkalinity and calcium stability, which are essential for the skeletal growth of stony corals (SPS and LPS). This 1000g format provides a cost-effective solution for large systems or significant level corrections.

Essential Stability & Coral Calcification

Maintaining the correct magnesium concentration is the foundation for a stable chemical environment in any successful reef tank.

Ionic Stabilization: Magnesium interferes with the formation of calcium carbonate crystals, allowing the water to hold higher concentrations of calcium and carbonates than it naturally would.
Supports Skeletal Growth: Corals incorporate magnesium into their aragonite skeletons; a deficiency can lead to brittle structures and stunted growth rates.
Aids Enzyme Function: Serves as a vital cofactor in many biological processes within coral tissue and beneficial bacteria.
Ultra-Pure Formula: Produced to the highest laboratory standards to ensure it is free from heavy metals, phosphates, and nitrates.
Flexible Dosing: The powder form allows for the creation of high-concentration stock solutions or direct dosing (after dissolution) based on specific aquarium needs.

FAQ Section: Common Questions

How do I mix Triton Magnesium powder? Dissolve the required amount of powder in RO/DI water to create a stock solution. For specific corrections, refer to the Triton Dose Calculator or your ICP-OES results for the exact grams needed for your water volume.
Why do my Calcium and KH levels drop even though I'm dosing them? If your Magnesium levels are too low (typically below 1200 mg/L), calcium and alkalinity will "precipitate" out of the water, forming white crusts on heaters and pumps. Raising Magnesium will solve this instability.
Can I dose the powder directly into the tank? It is always safer to dissolve the powder in a separate container of RO/DI water first. Pour the solution slowly into a high-flow area of the sump to avoid shocking your livestock with sudden local concentration spikes.
How often should I test for Magnesium? For a stable system, testing once every two weeks with a high-quality titration kit or monthly via ICP-OES is recommended.
