AminoPlus is the “food element” of the Reef Zlements method, a complete method that delivers macro and trace elements along with “nutrients” and food that your corals need to thrive. AminoPlus is a specifically designed blend of amino acids, carbohydrates and vitamins to work in synergy with Complete and the Reef Zlements nutrient management line. Reef Zlements proprietary recipe has been formulated to improve coral growth, colouration and overall coral health therefore, it is likely that reefers who start using AminoPlus within the Reef Zlements method, experience an increased consumption of Alkalinity, Calcium and all other elements. It is therefore important that these parameters are closely controlled. For better results, Reef Zlements say AminoPlus should be dosed in an area of high flow and throughout the day. To facilitate its use AminoPlus can be dosed with a dosing pump and doesn’t need refrigeration. AminoPlus recommended doses from Reef Zlements are as follows for each stocking level: Light (Soft, LPS & SPS) – 1ml per 100l per day Medium (Soft, LPS & SPS) – 2 ml per 100l per day Heavy (Soft, LPS & SPS) – 4 ml per 100l per day The above dosing recommendation is the dosing starting point and you may feel the need to adjust the dosing levels according to your reef specific needs. During the use of the nutrient management products and AminoPlus always monitor the visual appearance of your corals, the Nitrate and Phosphate in the tank water. If you notice any brown or grey biofilm on the live rocks or the appearance of algae/cyanobacteria it is a likely sign that you are overdosing or that your nutrient levels aren’t at ideal levels. Before making any adjustments, ensure all nutrient levels are at ideal levels. A reliable and precise test kit is necessary to prevent over dosing. Caution: Keep out of reach of children. Not for human consumption.
