AquaForest Hybrid Pro Salt

Introducing Hybrid Pro Salt; the most advanced reef salt to date. After years of observing that reef tanks thrive on natural seawater (NSW) or chemically pure laboratory salt, Aquaforest set out to create a Hybrid Pro Salt formula designed to provide the benefits of both salts to our delicate reef inhabitants and modern aquarists seeking towards more natural reefing methods enriched with probiotics.

After collecting a variety of water samples from naturally thriving reefs in Egypt, Kenya, Indonesia and Fiji, our chemists and biologists analyzed the ICP results from these established coral reef environments to create a range of parameters for even the most demanding corals. Unlike the ocean, an aquarium is a closed ecosystem and not all elements are consumed evenly. To compensate for absorption differences, we increased the levels of the most commonly consumed micronutrients and trace elements such as strontium and iodine for greater stability.

What makes Hybrid Pro Salt unique?

• Hybrid Pro Salt contains chemically pure, lab-created salt with natural sea salt flakes from the cleanest waters in the North Atlantic
• Proprietary blend of probiotic bacteria to reduce nitrate and phosphate levels while increasing color intensity and growth potential, often inhibited by high phosphate levels.
• Has a number of micro and macro trace elements and is enriched with the highest quality amino acids and vitamins that aid in immunity and natural metabolic functions.
• This new Hybrid Pro Salt formula creates conditions nearly identical to those found in natural seawater, while providing the added benefit of probiotics to maintain microbiological balance and safely lower nitrate and phosphate levels.

Dosage and Storage

• For best use, Hybrid Pro Salt should be dissolved in RODI water with a temperature between 24-25°C (75-77°F) and a salinity of 33 ppt (1,025 SG)
• Dissolve 390 grams of salt in 10 liters (2.19 US gal) of RODI water
  Mix for about 15 minutes. Once completely dissolved, the salt water is ready for immediate use
• The dissolved salt should be used up within 3 days. Evaporation changes the parameters of the water, so keep the prepared saltwater tightly closed. If you keep it for several days, check the salt content before use
• Store salt in a dry, moisture-free place in a dark place
  
  

TIPS

We recommend keeping the dKH between 7.5 and 8.5 to help the probiotic bacteria reproduce. Higher/lower levels may decrease bacterial activity
When setting up new aquariums, we recommend introducing the first fish/corals no earlier than 10-14 days after the aquarium has been set up and the water parameters have stabilized
