Seachem Reef Builder for Coral Growth
Seachem Reef Builder raises carbonate alkalinity without immediately impacting on pH.
With long term use there will be a tendency to stabilize at pH 8.3.
Carbonates and calcium are essential to all coral growth. If either becomes deficient, coral growth will cease, followed by a rapid decline in coral health.
Used as directed, Reef Builder will not deplete calcium, magnesium, or strontium which usually tend to precipitate with increasing alkalinity.
Reef Builder and Reef Buffer may be used together.
Use Reef Builder to raise carbonate alkalinity without affecting pH.

I’ve been using Reef Builder for several months now and my corals are growing steadily. The alkalinity has increased without any pH spikes, which is exactly what I needed. It’s easy to dose and works well with my existing tank setup.

Good product for maintaining alkalinity. I noticed a slight increase in pH over time, but it stayed within safe ranges. Works well with Reef Buffer when I need to adjust pH as well.

My reef tank has been stable since I started using Reef Builder. No issues with calcium depletion, and my polyps are more active than before. Very reliable for long-term use.
