Tropical - Marine Power Easy Magnesium

The 500ml container of Tropical Marine Power Easy Magnesium is a premium marine aquarium additive, but it has been specially designed for smaller aquariums mainly occupied by soft corals.

Along with chloride and sodium, magnesium is one of the three main components of seawater and supports the availability of calcium and strontium for calcifying corals such as LPS and SPS corals, snails and mussels. Magnesium is also an important bio-element that helps many marine organisms in their metabolic processes.

The magnesium content in natural coral marine environments is about 1280-1320 mg/l. In most marine aquariums, magnesium levels should be maintained at a stable and comparable level. Small deviations of 10-15% are not dangerous for the invertebrates in the aquarium, but they can put a strain on the corals and become even more problematic over time. While magnesium is not the main component of the coral skeleton, its ions are often built into the skeleton's composition, and for some types of corals, magnesium accounts for more than 3% of the skeletal structure. Magnesium consumption depends on many factors, such as: water temperature, lighting, type of stock in the aquarium and others, and its level requires regular monitoring.

Dosage

The dosage of MARINE POWER EASY MAGNESIUM depends on the daily magnesium consumption. A full cap of the liquid increases the magnesium content by about 20 mg/l in 100 l of water. Dosage for larger tanks is shown in the table.

The contents of the cap must be placed in the aquarium at the circulation pump, so that the liquid can be distributed well in the aquarium. With a higher magnesium consumption, we recommend our product MARINE POWER ADVANCED MAGNESIUM. Due to the potential stress for the inhabitants of the aquarium, the daily Mg increase should not exceed 80 mg/l. Note: Too much or too little magnesium can be harmful to marine invertebrates, so check the magnesium level in the aquarium regularly.
