The ATI Essentials Mixed Reef set 2x2.7 L is a two-part, ultra-concentrated liquid supplement for mixed reef aquariums that supplies major and trace elements to promote coral growth, coloration, and health. It simplifies aquarium maintenance by providing a ready-to-use, highly concentrated solution that doesn't require mixing, with a simple equal dosage for both parts. The formula includes elements like calcium, magnesium, and alkalinity, as well as essential trace elements, and is optimized to help reduce nitrates and phosphates in tanks with higher fish loads.
Key features
Two-part liquid system:
The set includes two 2.7 L bottles containing essential major and trace elements for your aquarium.
Highly concentrated:
The formula is approximately 5 times more concentrated than traditional Balling solutions, making the 5.4 L set space-saving.
Ready to use:
No mixing or preparation is required, saving time and effort.
Simple dosing:
Both parts of the solution are dosed in equal amounts, which can be adjusted based on the aquarium's specific needs for alkalinity and calcium consumption.
Comprehensive elements:
It provides a complete supply of major elements like calcium, magnesium, and alkalinity, plus trace elements like iodine, iron, and zinc, without causing unwanted accumulation.
Nutrient reduction:
The included "KH Complex" contains organic KH sources that help reduce nitrates and phosphates, making it ideal for mixed reefs with higher fish stocking.
Stabilizes parameters:
Helps stabilize water chemistry, which promotes better coral growth, metabolism, and coloration.
Low-temperature crystallization:
At low temperatures, crystals may form in the bottle. You can dissolve them by warming the bottle in a warm water bath. If operating at cold temperatures, it's recommended to dilute both solutions 1:1 with RO water.
Aqua PHOS - Phosphatabsorber for salt and fresh water removes up to:
Phosphat: ca.40.000mg/kg
Silikat: ca.10.000mg/kg
Copper: 8.000mg/kg
Used granulat is also fertilizer for plants.
Product information "Refraktometer - Salinity meter with automatic temperature compensation"
You are purchasing a high quality refractometer for testing the salinity of your marine aquarium water.A refractometer is by far the most accurate way of measuring the salinity in your aquarium.This refractometer is automatic temperate compensation, meaning the temperature of the aquarium water sample will not effect the reading.This refractometer comes complete with hard carry case, pipette for water sample, calibration screw, cleaning cloth and instruction manual.
Product information "Garlic 30ml"
Garlic is recommended for freshwater, seawater and planted aquariums or ponds. Good for fish and plants.
It contains Allicin which is a very powerful antioxidising agent that helps to prevent damages in fish cells and other marine inhabitants by strengthening their immune system and improving their appetite. This leads to healthy and fertile fishes. The allicin of the garlic kills germs even when mixed with 100.000 parts of water ! In deed a wonderful gift of the nature.

Skimz Macroalgae Biosorption Reactor (MBR) is a complete solution to leveraging the benefits of a concentrated algae scrubber, allowing users to grow algae within an upright contained reactor and place it in any sump. It is an excellent alternative for people who lack of space, but in need of a large algae scrubber. Growing algae like chaetomorpha will greatly help your reef aquarium with nutrient issues like nitrate and phosphate.
Skimz MBR157 includes a high power 360 degree LED that encased in a crystal clear quartz glass, allowing more light to pass through. The combination of Red, Blue and White LEDs provide an effective light source for algae grow and development.
The inclusion of DC pump give you full control of the flow rate through the algae. The highly efficient QuietPro DC pump with 9 different speed settings, allowing you to adjust the flow rate. As the water flow through the reactor and contacts the quartz sleeve, it will help to cool the LED lights.
Macroalgae Reactor Features:
• Small Footprint• LED Lighting System• DC Controllable Pump• Growing and Cultivating copepods• Biological Denitrification
Reactor Specifications:
• Footprint: 185 x 210mm (7 5/16" x 8 1/4")
• Total height: 570mm (22 7/16")
• Body diameter: 150mm (5 7/8")
Pump Specifications:

Installation:
• Designed for in-sump use
Lighting Duration:
12 hours is sufficient for growing macroalgae. The LED lighting is running on a reverse cycle so that when the main tank lights are off the LED lights turn on. During the night time, photosynthesis stops inside your aquarium and corals will no longer uptake CO2. This leaves an increased amount of CO2 dissolved in your aquarium water which then lowers your pH level. By running the Macroalgae Reactor at night, the algae inside the reactor will continue to uptake CO2 and help reduce the pH swing. This will help to stabilize the pH levels and the overall safety of its inhabitants.
Macroalgae Grows:
It's important to periodically harvest a portion by removing it from the Macroalgae Reactor. This opens up space for new macroalgae to grow and to continue absorbing undesirable nutrients

Skimz Macroalgae Biosorption Reactor (MBR) utilizes microalgae as a method of nitrate and other unwanted nutrient export from your reef aquariums. Skimz MBR incorporates an LED Grow light tube using quartz glass to maximize light penetration and efficiency. Quartz glass consists of quartz crystals that results in a transparent glass with an ultra-high purity and improved optical transmission.
Skimz MBR is an excellent alternative for people who lack of space, but in need of a large algae filter. This small upright macroalgae reactor may still be the best option. Skimz MBR LED Grow light tube is specially build with combination of 2 Red: 1 Blue : 1 White to grow macroalgae. The LED light tube is water proof, uses very low power and the quartz glass has high working temperature.
Skimz MBR will allow you to grow beneficial macroalgae as well as house zooplanktons. Zooplanktons like copepods and amphipods would breed, and their babies would flow into the aquariums as a food source for corals and fish. These tiny microscopic crustaceans incorporate protein and fatty acids into a highly nutritious package for consumption by marine animals. Some fish, such as the mandarins, anthias and sea horses are found to be extremely difficult to get to eat anything other than copepods and amphipods.
