ATI® ICP Element | Boron (B) 2700ml
High-Purity Single Element Supplementation
Part of the completely revised ATI® ICP Elements lineup, this high-purity boron solution is designed for the precise adjustment of element levels in reef aquariums. Developed and tested in the ATI® Lab in Germany, these solutions are ideal for both compensating acute deficiencies and maintaining daily element supply to ensure optimal skeletal development and vibrant coral health.
Why Boron (B) is Essential
Boron is a significant minor element in natural seawater that influences both the chemistry of the water and the biological health of coral tissue and skeletons.
-
Skeletal Formation: Boron plays a supportive role in the calcification process. A deficiency can have a direct negative impact on the growth rates and structural integrity of stony coral skeletons.
-
Coloration & Vitality: Low boron levels are often linked to bleaching or noticeably weaker coloration in both LPS and SPS corals.
-
Soft Coral Support: It is essential for the healthy development and "fullness" of soft coral tissue; without it, tissue formation can become poor or stunted.
-
pH Buffering: Boron contributes to the total alkalinity of seawater, helping to stabilize the pH within the aquarium environment.
-
Common Causes of Deficiency: Many salt mixes contain insufficient boron levels to account for long-term consumption. Without targeted supplementation, levels naturally deplete over time.
