Product information "Balling Light Carbonate-Mix KH 4kg"

BALLING LIGHT SALT CARBONATE-KH-MIX

Balling Light Carbonate Mix from Fauna Marin is a pure specialty salt for carbonate supply using the Balling Light method in marine aquariums.

The Importance of Carbonate Hardness / Alkalinity in Marine Aquariums

Alkalinity is an undefined sum parameter which is very important for reef aquaristics. An alkalinity test (“carbonate hardness test”, e.g. Fauna Marin Aquahome Test KH) should be part of the basic equipment. Carbonate hardness and alkalinity are basically different. However, we use the usual term carbonate hardness (KH/dKH).

The term „acid binding capacity“ is also used in laboratory reports. This indicates the amount of acid the water can bind, i.e. buffer. The carbonate hardness is then calculated from this value. This value alone is not meaningful, but in interaction with the salinity, calcium and magnesium, the calcium supply of the aquarium is controlled.

More information about the elements in marine aquariums can be found in our Knowledge Database.

Why Use Fauna Marin Salts?

Our salts meet pharmaceutical purity standards and are packaged accordingly for protection. We not only focus on the data sheet but also monitor organic and inorganic trace elements as well as the effectiveness of the salts. With Fauna Marin Balling Light salts, you receive the purest specialty salts available for marine aquaristics.

We additionally use bioactive stabilizers, pH buffers, and special minerals in our salts to significantly enhance the stability of chemical parameters in aquariums. The added trace elements remain more stable in solution, making them more accessible to corals.

By using our salt mixtures, you specifically add minerals and trace elements that are missing or only limited in commercially available sea salts. The addition of bioactive components and the purity of our salts prevent coral darkening and promote their growth and color development.

  • More effective due to high-purity salts with minimal water content
  • Salt mixtures for improved stability of essential parameters
  • Adapted to modern sea salts
  • Stable pH level
  • Addition of bioactive substances for better color development, coral growth, and biology

The Fauna Marin Balling Light System is a complete, self-contained system that can be used in conjunction with all common filtration systems.

It does not matter whether you use a zeolite system, the traditional Berlin system, or a natural filter system, such as mud filtration.

With the Balling Light method, you supply exactly the substances that are missing in the aquarium.
