Calcium is an important elements for stony corals and clams. Corals extract calcium from the water and use it to build their skeletons.

An Aqueous Reef Buffer System & an Ionically Balanced Combination of Necessary Trace Elements in One Simple System!

Automatically Sets pH to 8.2 - 8.3 MICROBE-LIFT/Complete is ionically balanced with trace elements for reef systems and will create a buffered system as well. A pH of 8.0 to 8.3 and an alkalinity of 2.9 to 4.0 meq/L. (8 to 11 dKH) is necessary for salt water and reef aquariums (fish only marine aquariums need to maintain 3.5 to 5.5 meq/L. or 10 to 14 dKH) and calcium levels should be at 400 to 450 ppm. Test calcium and alkalinity levels and adjust to your individual system. Do not add more than 0.5 mL per gallon per 12 hour period. Add calcium daily and this product for optimal results. If magnesium is low use MICROBE-LIFT/Magnesium Supplement. Regular water changes are recommended. You should use the MICROBE-LIFT line of reef products to simultaneously replace any minerals that are low. Optimum water conditions are a necessity for good reef systems. Where possible start with R/O water. If tap water is used be sure to condition the water with MICROBE-LIFT/XTreme or MICROBE-LIFT/Dechlorinator +. Routine water changes are a necessity and Alkalinity are an important part of the reef system. Always use MICROBE-LIFT/R/O Water Conditioner for all water changes and start ups.

Clean Aquarium Substrates Without Removing Them

For SALT & FRESH WATER

Provides rapid and natural sludge & muck removal
80% faster than bacterial products alone
Reduces and binds nutrients including phosphates
Organic and microbial based
Natural & Non-Caustic

Years in development, MICROBE-LIFT/Gravel & Substrate Cleaner speeds the biological breakdown of slow to degrade organic waste matter from aquarium bottoms that may become toxic to fish and plant life. As organic solids accumulate on the aquarium bottom they begin to break down, releasing toxic gases and by -products to the surrounding environment. These gaseous by-products endanger fish, marine life, and plants. MICROBE-LIFT/Gravel & Substrate Cleaner biologically degrades bottom organic sludge and muck with minimal disturbance, reducing or eliminating the potential harmful gaseous compounds, and helps to clarify your aquarium water at the same time. MICROBE-LIFT/Gravel & Substrate Cleaner contains natural cellulosic matter, select biological accelerators and special microbes proven effective in aquarium sludge reduction. MICROBE-LIFT/Gravel & Substrate Cleaner will also help to clarify dirty aquarium water. Recommended for use with all MICROBE-LIFT bacteria and enzyme products. MICROBE-LIFT/Gravel & Substrate Cleaner will discolor your aquarium water for 48-96 hours after application. This product is black in color and may tint your aquarium water slightly. Do not be concerned. The active ingredient is a natural product and will help clarify the water as well as digest organics in the aquarium.
