The total carbonate and bicarbonate concentration is also called alkalinity or carbonate hardness and for a stable system the alkalinity should not fluctuate by more than 5% from the optimum level of approx

It is most commonly used by connecting a carbon dioxide scrubber to your protein skimmer's air intake and can produce substantial lifts

accurate and cost-effective way to measure phosphate in marine systems including reef tanks

Salifert Phosphate Test Kit tgr for rapidly cycling new marineIf phosphate is present in too high a concentration there may be an increase in growth of undesirable algae and if the phosphate level is higher than 0. 04 mg L the growth rate of corals and calcareous algae may decrease by as much as 90%. Washing fish food (a rich source of phosphates) after thawing can significantly reduce the input of phosphate, and using a high grade, phosphate free activated carbon can also help to keep phosphate levels as low as
