It is a product of the highest quality, which was created as a result of years of research on coral growth. It is distinguished by its highly concentrated composition, which contains a perfectly balanced concentration of macro- and micronutrients, crucial for the growth and coloration of corals. It is the higher concentration of nutrients in Reef Salt+ that provides corals with optimal conditions for growth and development.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnlike the natural environment, an aquarium is a closed ecosystem in which deposits of valuable components are constantly being consumed. Ensuring continuous access to macronutrients is crucial to running a reef tank.  Reef Salt+ contains elevated concentrations of macronutrients in ideal proportions, so that regular water changes with it provide micronutrients valuable for coral growth and coloration, and help maintain a proper balance of key elements.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat makes Reef Salt+ unique?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe unique formula of Reef Salt + was developed after years of research into the growth of corals at different parameters and colony sizes.
