Original Balling Part B (Alkalinity) - 1kg Dry - Tropic Marin

Tropic Marin® Original Balling Components offer a highly customizable solution for reef aquarists who want precise control over calcium and alkalinity levels. Designed for use with the proven Balling method, this 3-part system enables independent dosing of calcium, carbonates, and essential trace elements—allowing for accurate adjustments tailored to the unique demands of your aquarium.

Each component plays a critical role in maintaining ionic stability:

• Part A – Calcium Chloride Dihydrate: Supplies bioavailable calcium to support skeletal development and overall coral health.

• Part B – Sodium Carbonate/Bicarbonate: Provides carbonate and bicarbonate ions that buffer pH and support alkalinity, essential for stable reef conditions.

• Part C – Sodium Chloride-Free Sea Salt: Replenishes magnesium, potassium, and other trace elements removed during calcium and alkalinity dosing, maintaining natural seawater chemistry and preventing long-term imbalances.
