Seachem Reef Nitrogen

Seachem Reef Nitrogen™

**Size and Content**

• Package: 250 mL (8.5 US fl oz).

• Concentration: A concentrated solution containing 15,000 mg/L of nitrogen.

**Product Overview**

Reef Nitrogen™ is a concentrated nitrogen source (15,000 mg/L) specifically designed for reef aquariums. It provides nitrogen in two forms—nitrate and ammonium—in a safe chemical formulation, helping to support the growth of corals and macroalgae in Ultra-Low Nutrient Systems (ULNS).

**Primary Uses**

• Safely raising nitrogen levels in nutrient-poor aquariums.

• Preventing coral bleaching caused by nitrogen deficiency (pale coral tissue).

• Supporting the growth of beneficial macroalgae in refugiums.

• Providing a direct energy source for corals via easily absorbed ammonium.

**Benefits and Features**

• Dual-action formula: Combines nitrate for long-term nitrogen availability with ammonium for rapid absorption.

• Safe and effective: Does not raise toxic ammonia levels when used at recommended dosages.

• Color enhancement: Helps restore natural coral colors that may have faded due to nutrient starvation.

• High precision: Allows hobbyists to precisely control macronutrient levels. Directions for Use

• Dosage: Add one capful (5 mL) per 160 L (40 US gallons) twice a week, or as needed to maintain desired nitrogen levels.

• Note: This dosage raises the nitrogen level by approximately 0.5 mg/L.

• For Professionals: It is recommended to measure nitrate levels before dosing; the goal is typically to maintain a nitrate level between 1–5 mg/L in reef aquariums.

Important Guidelines (Additional Information)

• Nutrient Balance: For optimal results, balance nitrogen with phosphorus using Reef Phosphorus™ to maintain the ideal "Redfield Ratio."

• Gradual Dosing: Start with lower doses and monitor the aquarium's response and algae growth.

• Storage: Store in a cool, dry place and keep out of reach of children.
