It provides exotic trace minerals and complex nutrients for health and vigor and to stimulate growth in corals, anemones, gorgonians, and desirable marine algae. It contains no detrimental heavy metals, gluconates or other sugars, phosphates, nitrates, or silicates. Coral-Vite does not promote undesirable algae growth. Our goal is to provide SLR or Sustained Long-term Results. To this end, Coral-Vite makes the lightest possible use of EDTA and preservatives. These ingredients are necessary, however, to make sure you get a fresh, potent product.

• Hard & soft coral vitamin and mineral supplement
• Designed For Miniature Reef Marine Aquariums
• Phosphate, Nitrate & Silicate Free
• Contains no gluconates, or other sugars!
• 8oz treats up to 2400gal

Considerations for use: For optimum results, use water prepared by reverse osmosis (particularly in mini-reefs). However, tap water treated with Chlorinex or Ammonia Detox will work.

Kent Coral-Vite will supply needed rubidium, lithium, barium and other important minerals as well as essential vitamins to the reef. Coral-Vite and Essential Elements are designed to work together in a reef environment.

Although Coral-Vite contains strontium and calcium, you should use separate additives for these to achieve a synergistic effect. Tanks with large numbers of soft corals, crustaceans or macro algae will require the Concentrated Iodine or Iron supplements as well. Use Kent Kalkwasser Mix, Concentrated Liquid Calcium, or Turbo-Calcium to supply needed calcium. Use Strontium and Molybdenum or Turbo-Strontium to provide heavy amounts of strontium.

Note: Live corals also require strong lighting, with proper spectrum and immaculately clean systems. Regular water changes are encouraged. Coral-Vite is safe for use with or without ozone and will provide excellent results in either case. More frequent addition may be required due to ozone use.

Directions: Add 1 to 2 teaspoons per 50 gallons of tank capacity every week depending on animal load (1 capful, or 5 ml = 1 teaspoon). Do not dose from the same container as Kalkwasser, but use simultaneously and add directly to tank or sump. Complements Kent Marine Essential Elements.

These vital minerals are used by fish and plants and removed through filtration in African Cichlid and other Rift Lake fish tanks. This is the most complete product on the market for Africans, nothing like it exists anywhere! You will see vibrant colors like never before! Also will benefit most American Cichlids whose native waters are hard and have a pH above 7.8! Free of polluting nitrates, phosphates, and organic chemicals!

Considerations for use:

1. First use A F CICHLID CHEMISTRY (a dry powder) to provide basic water chemistry and all trace minerals to African Cichlids and other Rift Lake fishes, for new systems and each time you change your water. It is recommended that you refer to reference material for the fish you are keeping to determine water quality parameters, but, a general guide is provided on the A F Cichlid Chemistry label. For optimum results, use water prepared by reverse osmosis, however dechlorinated tap water will work.
2. Next use A F CICHLID BUFFER, specially formulated pH buffer and alkalinity adjusting system designed for African Cichlids and other rift lake fishes, to adjust the alkalinity. Refer to reference material for the proper value, but a general guide is 175 to 225 ppm or 10o to 12o dKH (German degrees of hardness). The buffer also works well for other cichlids from hard alkaline waters (above 7.8 pH).
3. Test the pH. If it is low, then raise it with Kent pH CONTROL PLUS to the proper value for the type of fish you are keeping. A general guide is given on the A F Cichlid Buffer label..
4. Use reverse osmosis water for topping off for evaporation. (Tap water can be used, but will increase total dissolved solids!)
5. Use this product (Rift Lake Trace Elements) weekly to maintain trace mineral levels which will be depleted by fish and plants and by carbon, resin, and pad filtration.

Directions: Add one teaspoon (1 capful or 5 ml) per 30 gallons (120 liters) of tank capacity every week. Also add immediately after carbon use. For best results use with Kent A F Cichlid Chemistry, and A F Cichlid Buffer.

Contents: Inorganic mineral salts of aluminum, boron, bromine, calcium, chromium, cobalt, copper, iodine, iron, lithium, magnesium, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, potassium, selenium, sulfur, strontium, tin, and vanadium in a base containing deionized water and EDTA.
