Pure special salts from Fauna Marin

Our salts comply with pharmaceutical purity levels and are packaged accordingly. We do not only pay attention to the data sheet, but also control organic and inorganic trace elements as well as the effectiveness of the salts.

With Fauna Marin Balling-Light salts you get the purest special salts available for marine aquaristics. In our salts we additionally use bioactive stabilizers, pH buffers and special minerals, which significantly increase the stability of the chemical parameters in the aquariums. The added trace elements remain more stable in solution and are therefore more readily available to the corals.

By the use of our salt mixtures you supply minerals and trace elements, which are missing or only limited available. The addition of bioactive components and the purity of our salts prevent darkening of the corals and increase their growth and colour formation. Fauna Marin Balling salts are unique.

  •     more effective due to high-purity salts with the lowest water content
  •     Salt mixtures for better stability of important parameters
  •     matched to modern sea salts
  •     stable pH value
  •     supply of bioactive substances for better colour development and coral growth

The Fauna Marin Balling Light System is a complete, self-contained system that can be used in conjunction with all common filter systems. It does not matter whether you use a zeolite system, the usual Berlin system or a natural filter system, e.g. sludge filtration. With the Balling-Light method you supply exactly those substances which are missing in the aquarium.

LIGHT

LOW: Place coral at the bottom of the tank. Depending on the type, coral may need to be placed off sand and therefore mounted on a ceramic disc of piece of rock.

MEDIUM: Place coral at mid-range of the tank. Best placed/glued on top of a rock scape at mid-range height. 

HIGH: Place coral from mid range to just below water level. SPS coral are shallow growing so they require and are able to tolerate intense light.

FLOW

LOW: Most soft coral do well with a small, gentle pulse. There are certain corals that can even be placed in areas of indirect flow, meaning places aside a rock structure or set into a entrance to a cave style space.

MEDIUM: Many LPS types of coral prefer medium pulse current. Most Euphyllia or corals that have more tissue structure connected to their skeleton, don’t like to be in a high flow area like the direct flow of the wave pump.

HIGH: Similar to high light, SPS enjoy being in some heavy current. Most LPS and SPS that branch encrust or plate prefer high flow that simulates the top water waves.

SKILL

ENTRY: While some may say beginner level, "Entry" is a good term to be used when starting out in the world of corals and marine life. Prior to adding livestock, you want to ensure that your reef has the proper parameters including zero levels of ammonia and nitrite. Seeing traces of nitrate in your waters is a good sign - just keep them at a lower level of 2ppm to 10ppm. Maintaining correct temperature and salinity are a huge factor to stable parameters. Starting to monitor your PH, alkalinity, calcium and magnesium is a great habit to get into to keep a successful reef.

While some soft coral don’t require too much light, having a proper reef light that puts out the proper pars is very important. You'll also want to have a good amount of flow and protected rock areas, as placing corals in their happy spot is ideal for success.
