Description

Component B is designed for complementing minor deficiencies of heavy metals in a marine aquarium. Contains: cobalt, copper, chrome, manganese, vanadium, zinc, nickel, iron. Skimmer and filtration media tend to remove trace elements from the water of closed aquarium system, making micro nutrients supplementation necessary. The unique composition of the preparation ensures supplementing the water with heavy metals essential in the reef aquarium. Component B was designed based on the ratio of elements in natural seawater. Due to supplementation of crucial elements the corals will gain intense coloration and stay in fantastic condition. Safe concentration of the preparation minimizes the chance of micro nutrients overdose, therefore Component B can also be used by novice aquarists.
Dosage: in mixed-reef aquariums 5 ml per 100 l of water once a week. The dose can also be adjusted to the calcium consumption – 1 ml for every 20 ppm/100 l of water. In aquariums run with Balling method – 20 ml/1 l Calcium solution. When using Components A, B, C a 5-minute time interval should be kept between each dose.

AF Component B for trace metal supplementation

Protein skimmers and filtration are brilliant at keeping water clean, but they also strip out the heavy metals corals quietly rely on. AF Component B is a blended micronutrient solution we recommend to top up exactly those elements, carrying cobalt, copper, chromium, manganese, vanadium, zinc, nickel and iron in a ratio modelled on natural seawater. For reefers who would rather not juggle a shelf of single-element bottles, it is a convenient way to cover the heavy-metal side of trace dosing.

The blend is calibrated to seawater proportions, but that does not mean dosing without thought. We remind customers that copper in particular is sensitive in a reef, so stick to the recommended schedule and watch your corals and invertebrates for response. In a warm Singapore system, uptake varies, so pairing supplementation with periodic ICP testing keeps you from drifting into excess.

You will find it among our marine additives. For the principles behind it, read our reef trace elements dosing guide and our micronutrient deficiency guide.
