Product Description
AquaForest Calcium - 3.5KG
AquaForest Calcium - 3.5KG is a bulk-size reef calcium supplement for aquariums with regular calcium demand from stony corals, coralline algae, clams, and other calcifying organisms.
AquaForest Calcium Bulk Supplement for Reef Dosing
The 3.5KG size is a better fit for larger reef aquariums, higher-consumption coral systems, and aquarists who prepare dosing solutions regularly. It helps maintain calcium stability when used with proper testing, balanced supplementation, and a dosing schedule matched to the aquarium’s daily consumption.

- Maintains calcium levels required by reef-building corals and coralline algae.
- Useful for SPS, LPS, mixed reef, clam, and high-calcification systems.

- Works as part of a balanced supplementation method with alkalinity, magnesium, and mineral balance support.
