Aquavitro Calcification 4L – Advanced Calcium Supplement for Reef Aquariums
Product Overview
Aquavitro Calcification 4L is a highly concentrated calcium supplement (140,000 mg/L) designed to restore and maintain calcium at natural seawater levels without affecting pH. It features a unique dual-formulation of ionic and gluconate-complexed calcium, enabling optimal coral growth without unwanted precipitation or alkalinity loss.
Unlike traditional calcium supplements, Calcification includes a bioavailable form that promotes stability and boosts the bio-uptake of calcium, strontium, and magnesium. This makes it ideal for use in reef aquariums with high demands for growth and stability.
Features & Benefits
Dual-Form Calcium Technology
-
140,000 mg/L blend of ionic and gluconate-complexed calcium
-
Ensures maximum absorption and minimal physiological stress
Prevents Precipitation
-
Unlike calcium chloride, Calcification avoids alkalinity depletion and calcium precipitation
Coral Growth Optimized
-
Maintains levels between 380–400 mg/L
-
Supports growth of SPS/LPS corals and coralline algae
Bio-Supportive Formula
-
Gluconate polymer is a non-nutrient organic, safe for reef systems, and aids in denitrification
Compatible & Stable
-
Can be used daily and with carbonate buffers like eight.four without cloudiness
When to Use Calcification
-
When calcium is below 380–400 mg/L
-
To maximize coral growth, maintain skeletal structure, and support invertebrates
-
As part of a balanced reef dosing regimen
Directions for Use
Beginner Dosing:
-
Use 5 mL per 70 L (18 US gallons) twice weekly
-
Test calcium weekly and adjust as needed
Advanced Dosing:
-
Each 5 mL/70 L will raise calcium by ~10 mg/L
-
Do not exceed 15 mL per 70 L per day
-
Maintain target range of 380–400 mg/L
Safe to use with eight.four, ions, and balance
Use Seachem Reef Status: Calcium test kit for accuracy

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Why can Calcification be dosed with buffers like eight.four?
Unlike standard calcium chloride, Calcification™ contains a gluconate-complexed form that is uncharged and does not precipitate when used with buffers. This enables simultaneous dosing without reducing effectiveness.
There’s a thick layer in the bottle—can I still use it?
Yes. This is caused by evaporation. Add RO or distilled water and shake well to re-dissolve. It remains safe and effective.
Will Calcification increase algae growth?
No. The gluconate polymer contains no nitrogen or phosphorus. It won’t feed nuisance algae and is beneficial to denitrifying bacteria.
