Description
The Complete, All-in-One Reef Supplement — Makes 5 Liters of Dosing Solution
Streamline your reef tank maintenance and eliminate the clutter of multi-part dosing with Tropic Marin All-For-Reef Powder (800g). Specially engineered for nano tanks, intermediate setups, and mixed reef aquariums, this ultra-concentrated dry mix supplies every critical foundational element and micro-mineral your corals need from a single dosing container.
By combining organic calcium salts with essential bio-available minerals, All-For-Reef delivers balanced calcium, alkalinity, magnesium, strontium, and trace elements without causing salinity drift or creating harsh chemical byproducts. The 800g dry powder format gives you maximum freshness, a long shelf life, and major freight savings compared to pre-mixed liquids—yielding 5 liters (1.32 US Gallons) of ready-to-dose solution.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Single-Container Dosing: Delivers Calcium, Carbonate Hardness (Alkalinity), Magnesium, Strontium, and Iodine in biologically balanced proportions—no 2-part balancing or reactor tuning required.
-
Includes Tropic Marin K+ & A- Trace Minerals: Enriched with a complete suite of anionic and cationic trace elements (bromine, fluorine, iodine, lithium, molybdenum, selenium, vanadium, zinc, iron, manganese, and more) to boost coloration, tissue repair, and polyp extension.
-
Maintains Ionic Balance: Formulated to prevent shifts in the ionic composition of your saltwater and avoids gradual salinity creep caused by excessive sodium chloride ($NaCl$) accumulation.
-
No Sudden pH Depressions: Organic carbon conversion occurs biologically via coral tissue and beneficial bacteria, avoiding the sharp acid drops often seen with poorly buffered additives.
-
Perfect 800g Batch Size: Mixes up to 5 liters of crystal-clear liquid—ideal for nano-to-medium systems, countertop storage, or hobbyists looking to test All-For-Reef before committing to bulk sizes.
-
Automation-Ready: Once dissolved, the stable, precipitate-free solution can be administered manually or integrated directly into any standard standalone or automated dosing pump.

Mixing & Preparation Instructions
-
Prepare Water: Measure approximately 900 mL of pure RO/DI water into a clean 1-liter container (using lukewarm water at 75–80°F / 24–27°C helps speed up dissolution).
-
Measure the Powder: Add 6 level measuring scoops (approx. 160 grams) of All-For-Reef powder to the water.
-
Stir & Dissolve: Stir or shake vigorously for a few minutes until completely dissolved and clear.
-
Top Off: Add RO/DI water until the solution reaches exactly 1 liter total volume.
-
Batch-mixing the entire tub: To make all 5 liters at once, dissolve the full 800g container into approx. 4.5 liters of RO/DI water, then top off to exactly 5 liters total.

Dosing & System Guidelines
-
Establish Baseline First: Test and adjust your aquarium’s foundational parameters before initiating daily dosing (target ~8.0–8.5 dKH, 420–440 ppm Ca, 1300–1350 ppm Mg).
-
Starting Dose: Begin with a conservative baseline of 5 mL of prepared solution per 100 liters (26 US gallons) of system volume per day.
-
Weekly Adjustments: Monitor your alkalinity weekly. Increase your daily dose by 2.5 mL per 100 L (26 US gal) each week until your alkalinity stabilizes at your target level (recommended: 7.0 – 8.5 dKH).
-
Maximum Daily Dose: Do not exceed 25 mL per 100 liters (26 US gallons) in a single 24-hour period.
