ATI® Essentials SPS and Essentials Mixed Reef ensure a basic supply of trace elements. The concentrations are selected to avoid toxic trace element accumulations even in sparsely populated aquariums.
Specifically for reef tanks with increased trace element demand, we have developed the two products ATI® Essential Daily Traces #A and #B. These products also incorporate the latest findings we have gained from the newest generation of ICP measurements (ICP Ultimate MS) on trace elements in the microgram and nanogram range. Additional trace element requirements can arise, for example, from high coral load, refugiums or the use of GFO, zeolite and activated carbon.
Essential Daily Traces #A and #B can be individually adapted to the needs of your aquarium.
- Essential Daily Traces #A contains the trace elements chromium, cobalt, iron, copper, manganese, nickel, and zinc.
- Essential Daily Traces #B contains the trace elements fluorine, iodine, and selenium.
Dosage:
- Guideline: 0.5-1 ml/per 100l (26gal) per day
- We recommend determining specific dosage through regular ATI® ICP Lab Analyses (e.g. ATI® Lab Analysis Ultimate MS)
- Zinc acts as a reference value for Essential Daily Traces #A and iodine for Essential Daily Traces #B: If the reference value is exceeded, the dosage should be reduced; if it is not met, it should be increased.
Note:
Essential Daily Traces #A and #B can also be used as a separate trace element supply for soft coral aquariums or when using a calcium reactor
