Quantum Reef Essential® Aragonite A™ – 500ml
Step 3 – Aragonite Enhancers™ for Strong Coral Skeletons
Quantum Reef Essential® Aragonite A™ delivers ionic and complexed calcium along with key aragonite-building elements including strontium and barium. This formula helps corals form strong, high-density aragonite skeletons rather than brittle calcite, ensuring long-term health and structural integrity.
When used alongside Reef Essential® Aragonite B™ and Reef Essential® Aragonite C™, your reef will receive all the major, minor, and trace aragonite elements needed for robust growth. For enhanced coral tissue colour and growth, pair with Step 4 – Bioactive Colour Elements™.
