A.r.m. Calcium Reactor Media

This is a complete reactor media containing not only calcium and carbonate, but essential trace elements as well. In fact it has nearly 50 times the strontium of other brands (7390 ppm). It has been processed for immediate use, no rinsing required and has double the surface area of regular aragonite. Precision grading (2-3mm) allows for maximum carbon dioxide penetration and the exclusion of gastropod shells insures the lowest phosphate (less than 1/10 of 1 ppm) and silica (about 1/2 that of other brands) content. This grading also carries in the highest concentration of Halimeda Incrassata, an aragonite so pure it has been used as a laboratory standard. It has the highest solubility of any reactor media available (metastable at 8.2) so CO2 consumption is much lower.
