Kent Marine Purple Tech is designed to provide ionically-balanced nutrients required by coralline algae and stony corals. Kent Marine was established by aquatic hobbyists who saw a need for products that aid the user in creating the most natural enclosed marine and freshwater environment possible.
From vitamin and mineral supplements to nutritional products and filter media, Kent Marine set the benchmark and was one of the first in the aquatic industry to provide these unique solutions.
For the past 15-year, Kent Marine has been committed to providing effective ways to keep beautiful, healthy aquariums. Through continuous research, testing and development, new products like salt mix, scrapers and reverse osmosis filtration were brought into the Kent Marine family.

Stimulate the growth of colorful ornamental coralline algae. Kent Marine Purple Tech provides ionically balanced nutrients required by coralline algae, calcareous macro-algae, and stony corals. Regular use of this product will raise the concentration of calcium, magnesium, strontium, trace minerals, and carbonates (alkalinity/buffering capacity) in your saltwater aquarium system. Feeding formula of 0-0-1.

Directions:
Shake vigorously for 10 to 15 seconds immediately before use. Add 5-10 mL (1-2 teaspoons) per 55 gallons of aquarium capacity directly to an area of high water flow each day until target calcium level and alkalinity are reached. Due to its highly concentrated formula, dosing will cause cloudiness that will dissipate within one hour.
It is recommended that Kent Marine Purple Tech be added to the system at night, in order to counter the natural tendency for pH to decrease during this time. This also allows time for the aquarium to clear. When added at a rate of 1 mL per gallon of purified water, Kent Marine Purple Tech will increase the concentration of calcium by 26 ppm.
