Salifert Magnesium Profi Test Kit – Precise Magnesium Measurement for Reef Aquariums
Essential for Coral Growth and Maintaining Calcium-Alkalinity Balance
Magnesium plays a crucial role in natural seawater at concentrations of about 1300-1400 mg/L. It is essential for photosynthesis as part of chlorophyll, supporting the health of plants, algae, and corals in your aquarium.
Magnesium also helps maintain the delicate balance between calcium and alkalinity by preventing unwanted chemical precipitation of calcium carbonate. Without sufficient magnesium, calcium and alkalinity levels can drop due to unwanted chemical reactions, hindering coral growth and stability.

Why Magnesium Testing Matters
Magnesium depletion occurs through algae consumption, excessive kalkwasser dosing, and use of low-magnesium salt mixes. Regular testing with the Salifert Magnesium Profi Test Kit ensures balanced water chemistry for vibrant coral growth and a healthy aquarium environment.
