  • This was of course ...

    This was of course true at the time but things have moved forward since then with a greater understanding of the benefits of running a balanced salt blend and adding calcium, bicarbonate and magnesium to keep the balance correct. The new salt has a magnesium level of about 1380 and is so important for keeping the calcium and dKh in balance, making the calcium more available to the corals.

    David has not run the tank on instant ocean/reefcrystals for about 2 years now. Over the last few years D-D have been developing the optimum salt blend with the dKh, calcium and magnesium in perfect balance. The new salt is D-D H2Ocean Pro Plus - visit our website for more details.

  • The corals are ...

    The corals are placed with some long tongs and then glued in place with Aquascape epoxy - see our web site. This provides a strong base for growth without worry about it being knocked over or falling over when it gets too large. The glue dries to a purple coralline algae colour so it blends in with the rock.
