Brightwell Aquatics Reef Snow
Vendor:Brightwell AquaticsRegular price From $39.99Regular priceUnit price / perBrightwell Aquatics Reef Snow effectively replicates the concept of marine snow by combining a “core substrate” of carbonate-bound, non-conservative major, minor, and trace elements (all in aragonite ratios) with marine-derived proteins and fatty acids (all in coral tissue ratios). It does not contain any sugars or their derivatives. Reef Snow delivers both organic and inorganic nutrients to corals and their allies, clams, tube worms, and other suspension-feeding marine invertebrates; it may be of particular benefit to the hobbyist wishing to maintain azooxanthellate soft corals in deep-water biotope aquaria. The collective benefits of providing these nutrients in the same “package” are increased growth rates of both soft tissue and skeletal material.
Reef Snow does not require refrigeration, however storage in a cool, shaded area will prolong the shelf-life. Refrigeration will maximize the shelf-life of the product.Instructions and Guidelines
Shake product well before using. Turn protein skimmer and other forms of mechanical filtration off prior to adding Reef Snow to aquaria, and allow 10 - 15 minutes after use before resuming operation of filtration. Most zooxanthellate corals extend their tentacles at night, when the majority of coralivorous and zooplanktivorous fishes are asleep and the abundance of zooplankton in the water column passing over and through the reef is at its greatest. Therefore, the most sensible time to feed Reef Snow to corals is after all lights in the aquarium have been off (preferably for at least one- to two-hours) and the room is dark. Using a dim flashlight, illuminate the area immediately upstream of the coral to be fed, then feed as directed below. Slight cloudiness of the aquarium water accompanying dosage of Reef Snow is a result of the inorganic active components entering solution and will dissipate rapidly.
Target Feeding (recommended): Target feeding may be carried out with a lengthy piece of rigid air tubing, plastic syringe, pipette, dropper, or similar device; suck a portion of Reef Snow into the feeding device, then slowly discharge the contents of the device 2 - 4” upstream of the target organism(s). Repeat these steps as deemed necessary. Do not place items that have been exposed to aquarium water inside this container without first thoroughly rinsing them (inside and outside) with fresh water; failure to do so will contaminate the product and encourage it to decompose. See ‘Notes’ below regarding maximum recommended feeding amount.
Broadcast Dispersal: Add up to 2.5 ml (½-capful) per 50 gallons of water in the entire aquarium system in an area of rapid water movement every other day for the first four weeks of use; thereafter, the dosage may be gradually increased if desired.
Notes: Reef Snow should be considered a type of food. Add no more than 5 ml total of liquid food suspensions per 50 gallons of water in the entire aquarium system daily for the first four weeks of use; thereafter, the dosage may be gradually increased as desired. Caution: Keep out of reach of children. Not for human consumption.Guaranteed Analysis

Red Sea Reef Energy AB+ Coral Food
Vendor:Red SeaRegular price From $31.00Regular priceUnit price / perREEF ENERGY PLUS
An all-in-one superfood that will have your corals thanking you, delivering better growth, higher resilience, brighter colours, greater ease of use with automatic dosers, and minimal over skimming.
Based on our long-term research, Reef Energy Plus is an enhanced supplement that provides the complete nutritional components needed by Soft, LPS, SPS, and non-photosynthetic corals for vitality, growth, and coloration.
Benefits
- Meets corals’ complete nutritional requirements
- Maximal rate of growth
- Ease of use with automatic dosing
- Minimal over skimming
- Highest energetic efficiency
- No residual waste
Maximal growth
With Reef Energy Plus, your corals will grow even faster than the original, two-part formula. Our long-term laboratory testing clearly demonstrated a 15% faster growth rate with Reef Energy Plus.
Ease of use with automatic dosing
Feeding your corals is easier than ever. You can use an automatic doser to feed your corals with Reef Energy Plus, as the new all-in-one formulation can be kept unrefrigerated and unstirred for up to one week without compromising the efficacy of the combined components.
* To avoid spoilage, do not leave Reef Energy Plus unrefrigerated for more than one week and wash the dosing container with soapy water between refills.
Minimal over skimming
The new formulation minimises over skimming after feeding.
Highest energetic efficiency
Consists of an organic complex of dissolved and suspended simple building blocks of carbohydrates, amino acids, fatty acids, and vitamins, Reef Energy Plus can be absorbed and consumed directly by the corals. This immediate, direct consumption provides the highest energetic efficiency to the corals.
No residual waste
Every single component of Reef Energy Plus is consumed and utilised by the corals for their metabolic processes (e.g., protein production and soft tissue regeneration), leaving no unnecessary polluting organic material in the aquarium.
- When using LED lighting, increase the dose if corals are not growing even if there are no signs of photoinhibition.
Dosage:
- Dosing Reef Energy Plus Tank Type Daily Dosage
- SPS Frags Dose 4ml per 100 litres
- Mixed reef 4ml per 100 litres
- SPS dominant 8ml per 100 litres
- ULNS 12ml per 100 litres
The dosage chart is the recommended starting point for dosing based on a well stocked aquarium, however the dosage may need to be adjusted to the specific needs of your system.
Always monitor the visual appearance of your corals and check for fluctuations in nitrate and phosphate levels particularly in low nutrient tanks.
Typical signs of overdosing are the development of a grey/brown bio-film on the live rocks and outbreaks of algae.
Signs of under-dosing in a low nutrient system are bleaching of the corals from the base upwards.
The signs of over/under dosing the Reef Energy Plus supplements can also be related to other issues such as too high/low levels of nitrate and phosphate or over/under dosing of TraceColors elements. Before adjust the dosing of the Reef Energy make sure that all measurable parameters are at optimal levels
