Tropic Eden™ Premium Grade Aragonite Reef Substrates are carefully collected in remote coral reef sites of the South Pacific ocean, where pristine water and absolute zero pollution ensure that only aragonite materials of highest quality are produced.
Tropic Eden™ offers 3 different granulation of Premium Reef Substrates:
At Tropic Eden™ we only select the highest quality of reef sand that exactly matches the requirement we need. We pay great attention to selecting the specific forms of the reef sand we collect. Hence we have the sugar sized reef sand DeepSea AragaSnow, the Tonga MiniFlakes that resemble tiny bits of bread crumbs and the Tonga Reeflakes which look very much like oatmeal flakes.
All substrates have the following characteristics:
Composition - Composed of pure aragonite flakes, calcareous algae, juvenile seashells, coral fragments and other marine organisms. Highly rich in calcium, magnesium, strontium, carbonate and other trace elements essential for the growth of fishes, sps and lps stony corals, crustaceans and all other aquatic organisms.
No Impurities - Each batch of Tropic Eden™ Premium Grade Aragonite Reef Substrates is carefully gathered, processed and inspected at the sites of collection. And thus is completely free of any impurities or harmful materials.
Precisely Graded - Three steps of expert sieving to even sizes. Completely sorted into well defined aragonite flakes and grains.
Benefits - Maximizes Filtration Capacity. Enormous surface area and internal space houses large Quantities of beneficial nitrifying/denitrifying bacteria and millions of microbes. Massive buffering capability ensures a stable alkalinity and pH level at around 8.2 in seawater and cichlid aquariums. Quickly creates a natural biological balance which discourages the growth of nuisance algae.
Easy to Use - Ready to use - minimal rinsing required.
Handy Hint - To start setting up an aquarium, first add substrate to the aquarium for a depth of about 3 to 6 inches depending on the particular setup. Then place a dining plate on the sand bed. To fill water to the aquarium pour water right onto the dining plate in order to avoid agitating the sand bed.
Direction to Use - Before placing the sand in aquarium, gently rinse it with clean water a few pounds at a time until water turns from murky to clear. Then place sand in aquarium.
Tropic Eden™ Premium Grade Aragonite Reef Substrates are TRUE marine originated aragonite. Unlike calcium carbonate oolite which forms at the interface of cool and warm oceanic currents. Tropic Eden™ 's aragonite reef substrates consist of REAL calcareous algae, juvenile seashells, foraminifera shells, coral fragments and other marine calcareous organisms. Because these materials are the remains of marine organisms, they contain all of the essential elements necessary for the growth of marine organisms.
