Usage Instructions
Dosing Procedure:
- Shake well before using.
- Add 1 mL of Reef Fusion 1 per 25 L (6.5 US gallons) of water. The cap holds 5 mL for reference.
- Add Reef Fusion 1 to a high current area of the tank.
- Wait a few minutes.
- After shaking well, add Reef Fusion 2 in the same manner: 1 mL per 25 L (6.5 US gallons).
- It is recommended to add the two products to separate locations in the tank.
- Dose aquarium every 1-2 days.
This dose contributes approximately 4 mg/L of calcium and 0.176 meq/L of alkalinity.
Important Dosing Notes:
- Maintain calcium levels between 380-420 mg/L.
- Maintain alkalinity between 3-6 meq/L.
- The size or frequency of the dose may be increased if the current regimen is insufficient to maintain calcium and alkalinity within these ranges.
- Do not exceed 4 mL per 25 L (6.5 US gallons) per day for either product.

Maintenance
Regular monitoring of calcium and alkalinity levels in your reef aquarium is crucial. Use a reliable test kit to check these parameters frequently, especially after initial dosing adjustments. Consistent dosing according to the instructions will help maintain a stable environment for your corals.
Troubleshooting
Low Calcium/Alkalinity Levels:
If your calcium or alkalinity levels remain below the recommended ranges (380-420 mg/L for calcium, 3-6 meq/L for alkalinity) despite regular dosing, you may need to increase the dose frequency or amount. However, do not exceed 4 mL per 25 L (6.5 US gallons) per day for either Reef Fusion 1 or Reef Fusion 2.
High Calcium/Alkalinity Levels:
If levels are consistently above the recommended ranges, reduce the dosing frequency or amount. Overdosing can lead to precipitation and negatively impact water quality.
Always re-test water parameters after making adjustments to your dosing regimen.
