| Complete source of the elements and molecules directly used by corals, clams, and other reef-building invertebrates and organisms to create skeletal material and grow. Provides calcium, strontium, magnesium, and potassium in approximately the same ratios in which they occur inaragonite, the mineral that is primarily secreted by reefbuilding marine organisms under normal environmental conditions. Very strong source of carbonates, also involved in aragonite formation; twice the calcium (36% by dry weight, 360,000 ppm) relative to carbonates compared to naturalaragonite. Formulated by a marine scientist. |
