Strontion
Brightwell Aquatics Strontion
Concentrated Strontium Supplement for all Marine Fish & Reef Aquaria
- Highly-concentrated ionic strontium solution.
- Incorporated by corals, clams, and other reef-building invertebrates into aragonite, the mineral that is secreted as skeletal material.
- Stronger than most competing strontium solutions.
- Contains no unwanted organic material such as EDTA, gluconate, or polygluconate.
- Over 50% stronger than most competing products.
- Free of phosphate, silicate, and organic material.
- Formulated by a marine scientist.
Strontium is found in the bones of fish and, more importantly, in aragonite, the mineral secreted by reef-building marine invertebrates such as corals, clams, tube worms, and their respective allies.
Overall, strontium accounts for between 0.75 - 1.00% of aragonite’s total mass, and findings suggest that strontium itself induces inorganic precipitation of other ions, creating abiogenic aragonite.
Rapid growth rates of corals and other reef-building invertebrates witnessed when strontium is maintained at the natural seawater concentration of approximately 8 ppm suggest this element’s importance in the marine environment.
The rate at which strontium is extracted from the water is determined by the stocking density of reef-building livestock, type of lighting, and other biological, physical, and chemical conditions; therefore, each aquarium will have different requirements for the rate of strontium supplementation.
Once the rate of strontium uptake in the aquarium has been determined, the proper dosing rate of this product can be easily calculated.
It is recommended that a quality salt mix with the proper (not augmented) alkalinity and concentrations of major, minor, and trace elements be used to establish natural seawater parameters in the reef aquarium, providing a stable ionic foundation on which to build.
The basis of healthy, rapidly-growing reef-building invertebrates is simply providing proper physical and chemical conditions. Maintaining calcium, magnesium, and strontium at natural seawater concentrations and alkalinity between 7 - 12 dKH is the first step towards achieving this goal.
250 ml treats up to 3,750 Litres

Strontion-P
Brightwell Aquatics Strontion-P
Strontium Supplement in Powder Form for all Marine Fish & Reef Aquaria
- High-purity powdered strontium.
- Incorporated by corals, clams, and other reef-building
- invertebrates into aragonite, the mineral that is secreted as skeletal material.
- Stronger and more economical than liquid strontium solutions; created for hobbyists maintaining multiple reef aquaria.
- Formulated by a marine scientist.

1,200 gm treats up to 181,700 Litres
It is recommended that the strontium concentration in the aquarium be determined by using an accurate test kit prior to supplementing.
Do not add this product directly to an aquarium containing live animals without first diluting in water as directed.

Kalk+2
Brightwell Aquatics Kalk+2 : a unique Kalkwasser
Calcium, Strontium, and Magnesium Supplement for all Marine Fish & Reef Aquaria
- Contains calcium, strontium, and magnesium in the same ionic ratios found in aragonite. This unique feature increases the usefulness of Kalk+2 to reef-building invertebrates such as corals, clams, calcareous algae, etc.
- Provides temporary alkalinity and helps maintain pH within the desired range when used as directed.
- Adds no conservative elements, such as chloride, to the
- aquarium.
- Improves upon the industry-standard powdered calcium
- supplement over the past three decades.
- Formulated by a marine scientist.
Calcium, magnesium, and strontium are required for the formation of aragonite, the skeletal material of reef-building invertebrates such as corals, clams, tube worms, and their respective allies.
Brightwell Aquatics Kalk+2 provides these elements and may also be used to help regulate pH in reef aquaria.
Kalk+2 does not contain chloride salts, which is a strong point for some hobbyists.
The use of kalkwasser-type products remains very popular with many seasoned hobbyists, regardless of innovations in calcium-delivery methods
Kalk+2 is intended for use by experienced hobbyists who are familiar with kalkwasser (calcium hydroxide-based) products.
The calcium concentration (”[Ca2+]”) and pH in the aquarium should be determined by using an accurate test kit prior to supplementing.
Do not add this product directly to an aquarium without diluting in water as directed, and do not overdose; it must be added in a controlled fashion with a dosing device
