CALCIUM | STRONTIUM | TRACE

Hydroshock Calcium is a calcium supplement enriched with carefully balanced trace elements, formulated to meet the exact needs of reef aquariums. It ensures robust coral skeletal growth by precisely replenishing calcium consumed during coral calcification. This formula incorporates essential trace elements such as strontium, potassium, iron, manganese, zinc, and vanadium, matching their natural ratios in coral skeletons. Regular use alongside Hydroshock Alkalinity and Magnesium supports vibrant coral coloration, optimal growth, and overall reef health without causing trace element imbalance.

Instructions 

Start dosing at 1 mL per 100 L daily, matching equally with Hydroshock Alkalinity and Magnesium.

Regularly measure alkalinity (dKH), calcium (Ca), and magnesium (Mg). Adjust all three components slowly and equally to maintain stable chemistry.

Make incremental dosing adjustments based on regular testing to maintain stable calcium and trace element levels.

If calcium significantly drifts, temporarily dose Hydroshock Calcium independently to restore balance before resuming standard 1 : 1 : 1 dosing.

Dose into areas of high water flow.
