Red Sea offers a premium sea salt mixture based on natural sea salt harvested from the waters of the exotic Red Sea by solar evaporation techniques. Red Sea Salt is enriched with other refined minerals to faithfully replicate natural seawater for your aquarium.

Used for over 10 years by hobbyists and professionals alike, Red Sea Salt has become famous for its favorable effect on invertebrates. Red Sea Salt is the only salt formulation offered today that is derived principally from a living sea.

Special Characteristics of Red Sea Salt:

  • A single, chemically balanced formula to support the most delicate marine life
  • Suitable for marine fish and invertebrates from every sea and ocean
  • Reaches a stable, natural pH shortly after mixing
  • No nitrates or phosphates
  • Produced by a small batch process to ensure homogeneity of salt mixture
  • Every batch is biologically and chemically tested for quality control
  • Suitable for a small water change or a complete new aquarium set-up
  • Can be mixed to any desired salinity

1.4 lb dissolved in 5 gal of Reverse Osmosis (R.O.) water at 750F (1Kg dissolved in 30 liters at 250C) will produce a seawater solution as follows: Specific gravity 1.021 pH 8.4 (after 2 hrs mixing or aerating) Alkalinity 2.2-2.5 milliequivalents/litter.

One level cup of salt produces exactly 3.75 US gallons of seawater solution at a specific gravity of 1.021.

Notes

All marine organisms have evolved in, and are adapted to, the natural marine environment as found in the sea; more particularly in the coral reef. Although the salinity of natural seawater varies geographically, natural seawater contains over 70 chemical elements in a ratio that is remarkably constant all over the world. The aim of every marine aquarist is to create and maintain an artificial environment that replicates the natural environment as closely as possible. Correct filtration, suitable lighting, balanced stocking and appropriate feeding are essential factors, however the basis of any successful aquarium is the water itself and maintenance of its delicate chemical balance. Many of the chemical elements present in seawater are constantly being depleted as they are utilized by the animals or removed by filtration and should be replenished regularly. Even with a well-balanced aquarium ecosystem, there may still be gradual buildup of undesirable elements in the seawater that are not removed by filtration. It is therefore good practice to dilute these undesirable elements by regular partial water changes.
