ATI Essentials SPS is a highly concentrated two part system for perfect growth, optimal metabolism, and pronounced distinctive coloration in SPS-dominated reef aquariums. Based on our experience from tens of thousands of ICP laboratory analyses, the formula has been continuously optimized and refined over the years, providing you with a state-of-the-art two part system. Other features include:
Supply of all major elements: boron, bromine, calcium, fluorine, potassium, alkalinity, magnesium, sulfur, strontium
Basic supply of the following essential trace elements without accumulation: cobalt, iron, iodine, lithium, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, rubidium, selenium, vanadium, zinc
The purely inorganic KH component stabilizes the pH value at a higher level, which is particularly desirable for sensitive SPS corals
The concentrations are adjusted so that equal amounts of both solutions can be dosed
Individual adaptation to the needs of your aquarium to achieve a natural water composition and to avoid ion shift
Ready to use and approximately 3.6 times more concentrated than a classic Balling two part. No more tedious preparation required.
ATI Essentials SPS consists of the following two individual components:
#1 KH Complex
Contains 27,000°dKH per 2,700ml (0.71gal) bottle (10,000°dKH/l)
Contains the trace elements iron, iodine, selenium
Contains the trace elements cobalt, iron, lithium, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, rubidium, vanadium, zinc
Contains the major elements boron, bromine, potassium, magnesium, strontium
Dosage:
Dose equal or very similar amounts of both solutions
Guideline per solution: 5-10ml per 100l (26gal) per day
The dosage should replace the daily consumption of alkalinity and calcium
You can determine the daily consumption by regularly alkalinity and calcium (e.g., via ATI® Test Kits or ATI® ICP Lab Analyses).

Please Note:
Due to the high concentration, crystals may form in the bottle of #1 KH Complex at low temperatures
The crystals disappear by heating the bottle in a warm water bath to approx. 45°C (115°F) or by placing it on a radiator
For cold operating temperatures (<20°C/<68°F), we recommend diluting the product 1:1 with RO water. To ensure the dosage amounts of #1 and #2 remain the same, #2 should also be diluted 1:1 with RO water
