Tropic Marin® has discovered a special group of compounds for
saltwater aquariums. These marine biopolymers are long chain molecules produced
by organisms in response to the specific challenges presented by their unique
marine environment.
By incorporating these long chain marine biopolymers, the new products,
REEF ACTIF and PRO-CORAL REEF SNOW greatly increase and
maintain the vitality and colour of corals and reef clams while providing other
filter feeding animals with an optimal nutrient source. In addition, both
products contribute to a significant improvement in the water quality of
saltwater aquaria.
Tropic Marin PRO-CORAL REEF SNOW
A Natural Source of Nutrients for Corals and Other Filter Feeding Animals
Recently marine scientists have become increasingly aware of reef snow’s central
function as a vital source of nutrients on natural coral reefs. Dissolving
Tropic Marin® PRO-CORAL REEF SNOW in RO/DI water forms a thick solution that can
be combined with nutrient supplements and foods such as Tropic Marin® LIPOVIT
and PRO-CORAL ZOOTON and PHYTON to mimic this natural nutrient source.
When added to the reef aquarium, PRO-CORAL REEF SNOW together with the food and
supplements form highly nutritious flakes similar to those of natural reef snow.
By varying the concentration of the PRO-CORAL REEF SNOW solutions, the size of
the flakes can be adjusted to the specific filter feeding animals maintained in
the aquarium. The portion of PRO-CORAL REEF SNOW and the nutrients it contains
which falls to the aquarium floor is only slowly decomposed by bacteria, thus
further providing additional enriching nutrients.
In this way PRO-CORAL REEF SNOW also helps in reef aquaria as a food source for
a wide variety of bottom dwellers. It is also a delicacy for worms, crustaceans,
sea cucumbers, sea urchins, right up to gudgeons and other detritus feeding
fish. The stirred up particles can be utilized again by the filter feeding
animals as a valuable food source.
Tip: Many fish happily devour larger flakes of PRO-CORAL REEF SNOW. As a
prebiotic food, it promotes the natural intestinal flora and thus also helps
prevent the spread of unwanted bacteria.
