FAQ Questions and answers

If you mix our MICROBE-LIFT BASICs for coral supply, the correspondingly calculated amount of BASIC 1, BASIC 2 or BASIC 3 must be filled with osmosis water until a total of one liter of liquid is produced or, converted, several liters, depending on how much the BASIC salt has calculated.

Since both our MICROBE-LIFT All-In-One and our BASIC-System are independent complete coral care systems, both products should be used individually depending on the needs of the respective aquarium. A combination and thus a double coral supply makes no sense.

Tips & Tricks
  • The daily added amount depends on the consumption, therefore you should check the calcium content regularly in your aquarium.
  • In case of a direct dosage of Basic 1 Calcium, add it near to the return pump in your sump.
  • Use Basic 1 Calcium together with our Basic system for an optimal care of your corals.
  • Never dispense Basic 1 Calcium and Basic 3 Carbonate at the same time to avoid precipitation.
  • Basic 1 Calcium can be used for balling method.
