AquaForest Hybrid Pro Salt 522 kg
The Most Advanced Reef Salt for Demanding Marine Aquariums
AquaForest Hybrid Pro Salt is an advanced sea salt formula developed for demanding reef aquariums, including systems housing sensitive SPS corals. Its unique hybrid formulation combines the stability and predictability of chemically pure laboratory salt with the natural richness of sea salt flakes sourced from the clean waters of the North Atlantic.
Enriched with probiotic bacteria, essential micro- and macro-elements, amino acids, and vitamin C, Hybrid Pro Salt is designed to support water quality, coral growth, coloration, immunity, and the overall condition of marine aquarium inhabitants.
Key Features
- Advanced hybrid formula combining chemically pure laboratory salt with natural North Atlantic sea salt flakes.
- Probiotic bacteria help support water purity and assist in controlling nitrate and phosphate levels.
- Rich in micro- and macro-elements to support the daily requirements of fish and corals.
- Enhanced with strontium and iodine, two elements that are readily consumed in reef aquariums.
- Contains high-quality amino acids and vitamin C to support natural metabolic functions and the health and condition of aquarium inhabitants.
- Ideal for demanding SPS corals, where stable parameters and controlled nutrient levels are especially important.
- Laboratory tested using ICP-OES analysis to verify composition and help ensure consistency between batches.
- Designed from extensive reef research, with water samples collected from coral reefs in Egypt, Kenya, Indonesia, and Fiji.
The Best of Both Worlds
Hybrid Pro Salt was developed after years of observing marine aquariums maintained with both natural seawater and chemically pure laboratory salt.
Rather than choosing between the two approaches, AquaForest combined their advantages. Chemically pure salt provides stability and predictable parameters, while natural sea salt flakes contribute a broad range of naturally occurring micronutrients.
The formula is further enhanced with probiotic bacteria, amino acids, vitamins, and carefully selected elements to create a comprehensive salt mix for modern reef aquariums.
Benefits
Supports Coral Growth & Colouration
The carefully balanced formula provides essential elements and nutrients needed for healthy coral development and vibrant coloration. Controlled nitrate and phosphate levels can be particularly beneficial for demanding SPS corals.
Helps Maintain Water Quality
The proprietary probiotic bacterial blend helps support water purity and assists in controlling nitrate and phosphate levels.
Supports Aquarium Stability
The use of highly purified laboratory salt helps provide stable and predictable water parameters, making Hybrid Pro Salt suitable for carefully managed reef systems.
Supports Marine Life
A combination of trace elements, amino acids, and vitamin C helps support the health, immunity, and natural metabolic functions of fish and corals.
How to Use
- Start with RODI water at approximately 24°C / 75°F.
- For a target salinity of 33 ppt (1.025 S.G.), add approximately 390 g (13.75 oz.) of Hybrid Pro Salt to 10 L (2.7 US gal) of water.
- Stir vigorously for approximately 15 minutes, or until the salt has completely dissolved and the water becomes clear.
- Check the resulting salinity with a refractometer before adding the water to your aquarium.
- Once the salinity has been confirmed, the saltwater is ready for use.
Important Tips
- Keep dKH between 7.58.5 to support probiotic bacterial activity. Higher or lower levels may reduce bacterial activity.
- When setting up a new aquarium, AquaForest recommends introducing the first fish or corals no earlier than 1014 days after the aquarium has been established and water parameters have stabilised.
- After dissolving, freshly prepared saltwater should be used within 3 days.
- Evaporation can alter water parameters. If freshly mixed saltwater is not used immediately, keep it in a tightly closed container.
- If mixed saltwater has been stored for several days, recheck the salinity before use.
Storage
Store Hybrid Pro Salt in a dry, dark place and keep the container properly sealed to protect the salt from moisture and environmental contamination.
Quality Control & Laboratory Testing
Every batch of AquaForest Hybrid Pro Salt undergoes thorough laboratory testing. Samples are taken from each 600 kg batch, dissolved in RODI water, and analysed to verify composition, uniformity, and the absence of undesirable contaminants.
Testing is performed using two individually calibrated ICP-OES spectrometersone dedicated to micronutrient analysis and the other to macronutrient analysis. Test results for individual batches are made available online.
